sfalk16 's review for:
American Fire: Love, Arson, and Life in a Vanishing Land
by Monica Hesse
Hesse has written well the story of a series of fires that were set in Virginia over five months in 2012 and 2013. She weaves interesting and important facts in effortlessly, in a way that gives the story a sense of breathing...building intensity, then relieving it with a bit of drier background.
The only reason this story is receiving 3 stars rather than 4 is that I don’t think the book will stay with me or tempt me to read it again. Yet, it is most definitely worth reading (or listening to) once if you have any interest in true crime stories.
