Sharon truly has a way with words even her writing styles are wonderful. Anyone who reads this book would think it’s a realistic but too bad it’s a fiction. Once you start reading this book you wont want to stop and I love enriched the words are Romiette and Julio, is a must read book! Sharon tells us about the adventures and risk they do to survive and that they have been struggling from they met each other because of the gang ‘Devil Dogs. The characters of this remarkable book are humans. Draper is packed with action and passion. I was disappointed and I would not want to read this as a class novel.Romiette and Julio by Sharon M.

On a positive note, Draper does try to address the issue of gang violence and its dire consequences. I feel that like most Draper books this story really doesn’t deliver a solid storyline – it seems to stay too superficial and never really goes deep enough to drive the point home. Reading becomes labored because it’s too much “blah, blah, blah” between the characters (exactly what most English teachers tell their students to avoid when writing their own stories). The idea of modernizing Romeo and Juliette is a good one, however the delivery was poor. I feel that her use of dialogue is excessive and totally weighs the book down. REVIEW: To all the Draper fans, I apologize but I did not enjoy reading this book. Can Julio and Romiette make a relationship work amid so much chaos? Why does Romiette keep having a nightmare about drowning and what could it mean? However, the Devildogs don’t want Romiette talking to Julio and their threats are increasing. He’s finally met a girl that he loves talking to. Then Julio meets Romiette and his luck changes.

The Devildogs run things at Julio’s new school and let him know right away that they don’t want him in their school. PLOT SUMMARY: Julio has just moved to Cincinnati from his home town of Corpus Christi to get away from gangs and so that his father could find work.
