In an interview at the end of Saving Stevie, author Eve Richardson states that Minta is naïve and that runaways in general do not know what they are getting into. This is an adequate portrayal of the main character. The residents of Shacktown, both young and old, all deal with their situations in different ways, some optimistic, some depressed. While the characters are unique and interesting and the plight of these residents is adequately addressed, Saving Stevie is not a story that will resonate among most teenagers. Few kidnap their sister’s child and run off to a shanty town. The ending is anticlimactic and abrupt. Feel free to pass on this book.
