I LOVED this! I felt for this character! The mess happening enthralled me and I just couldn’t stop listening. It was such a beautiful but sad ending, too. I already want to reread it. This author knows how to tell a story!

What can I say? Even better the second time around. I didn’t remember anything so it was very much like a first time read. Dickey’s writing is so timeless and you feel each emotion the characters bring to the table. This is a story about hurt people and I am just speechless. I am a sucker for a strong plot and a character driven novel and I definitely believe this is about to be in my top 3 of the year. Easy… Hands down… I may be a little biased because he puts me in a chokehold every single time he mentions Alabama in any aspect.
