Chappell writes southern fiction at its most poignant and most humorous. His character descriptions make you feel like you're sitting on the front porch watching all the shenanigans ensue in this tiny North Carolina town. The author's love of NC and the nuances of southern life endear and entertain. Must read, especially if you're in need of perspective, humor and a dash of cheer. #setinasmalltown #fiction #southernlit
