A review by alpacalunch
Gods in Alabama by Joshilyn Jackson

5.0

One of my favourite books ever. Came across it by chance in the library aged about 15 and was intrigued by the title. Loved it, but managed to forget the title and the author! Found them out again a few years later by googling characters and plots details, bought a copy for myself and several for friends, then went on to read all other Joshilyn Jackson books I could get my hands on, but this remains the best in my opinion.

The characters and imagery stay with you, the plot is tight and the twist well hidden, the writing dryly funny and well observed.
