Big Stone Gap by Adriana Trigiani
3.0

Meh. I’d save your money/time. I wouldn’t recommend reading it. Not the worst book I’ve ever read but not great. I checked it out as an audiobook, it was under 11 hours long and holy sh*t it took me forever to get through. I don’t think I’ll be checking out any others in the series. It was slow, the story was okay but really not worth all the hype. I’m keeping in mind the era it took place in but even still, it was just full of the same tired trope about a woman not sure what she wants, which man she’s in love with (spoiler: the one is obviously gay) and she’s not exactly nice to the one she ends up with. I dunno, I guess now I’m just relieved to be through the book and done.
