I didn‘t love this as much as Big Stone Gap, but I did enjoy it. It almost felt a little bit like a prologue to Demon Copperhead in a way. The mines are closing but the opioid epidemic hadn‘t set in for SW Virginia yet. #Backlistreadathon @Clwojick @TheAromaofBooks

#AwesomeApril starts tomorrow and my plan is to not get out of bed until I‘ve made a dent.

First night on the porch this year. Reading the tagged and listening to the Red Sox.

LOVED THIS!
It‘s probably not one I would have picked up on my own, it‘s very literary & at a glance seems very serious…
But it was so unique, touching & hilarious.

I just finished PS while vacationing in FLA. I enjoyed this read so much and remain in awe of Kingsolver‘s writing acumen! 3 interwoven stories taking place in a mountainous valley of Appalachia. I found myself tearing up and laughing out loud. Kingsolver‘s ability to put me in the setting is perfection itself! I felt like I was in this lush green world! A little late but I‘m mailing it on to the next person in #Round20 #LMPBC #GroupC 4.5/5⭐️

Good. Set in Appalachia in the 1930s-40s. Coming of age story. Sad in parts, but not overwhelmingly depressing. Ends on a hopeful note (which makes sense because there is a series).
