A review by trisha_thomas
In West Mills by De'Shawn Charles Winslow
2.0
"Time is time. That's what time is."
This is a definite case of "it's not you, it's me" type of book. This one just wasn't for me.
The writing style wasn't my favorite. It was a lot of description and dialogue but not a lot of getting to know anyone. I felt plunked into a town closer to the middle of the story than the beginning and only got glimpses into the past through memories (and they were rare). Otherwise it's a sweeping story, that involves a few lives in a small town - as each of them make decisions and help each other out.
I didn't find either main character particularly like able but I know, again, the drinking is more my hang up and not something particularly wrong with the story - just not my thing. I wish I'd liked it more.
