I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.When I first read the synopsis for Tumbleweed, I was intrigued and had no idea what to expect.  This book turned out to be nothing like I expected.  It’s not a happy go lucky read.  It’s dark and has parts that are very disturbing.  My heart broke for the events Haley lived through.  This story brought tears to my eyes.  I loved Haley’s determination to live her dreams after having her heart broken.  I didn’t enjoy the way she decided to live her life always on the go, using men for sex.  I also didn’t understand until the end what went so terribly wrong with her relationship with Mikel.  I couldn’t believe he would betray her like that.  I was also horrified by the torture she was forced to endure.  I don’t want to dwell on that aspect of the book and give too much away, but I’m just horrified to even think that that type of thing happens in the world.The only thing I did not like about the book was the descriptive words used during sex scenes.  They really turned me off and actually made me laugh at times.  I also couldn’t believe how they were used over and over.  If not for that, this would have been a 5-Bomb read for me.4-BombsReviewed by Tracy
