Book Review, Gods in Alabama

14 Aug

Eliza at Draw the Girl recommended this author in one of her posts. After reading Joshilyn Jackson’s blog – the author – for a little while, I thought oh what the heck and bought the book. This was a step for me. I rarely try new authors, but I’m so glad I did.

This book is basically about a woman coming to terms with her past, her family, her boyfriend, and other secrets along the way. It’s a great read. It wasn’t formulaic at all – and caught me by surprise. In fact I stayed up until almost 2am last night – when I had to work today. I hardly ever do that, I need my rest too much for getting through work and the kids. I couldn’t put it down.

I’m looking forward to reading her second novel.

    (Blogmad hit) You’ll love the second one, too! I read it in about 5 hours. (I was stuck somewhere with nothing else to do, but never the less, I wouldn’t have been able to put it down.)
