Ok, who's excited about finding a new writer they can't wait to read more of.....I am I am!!
I really, really like this story, so much so that I think I'm going to read again real soon.
I love family stories and this one was a great one. This book, from what I read, is a first novel by Brad Boney. I swear to the baby Jebus you would never know that while reading. The dialogue is what got me the most, it read true. Like maybe ole' Brad was recording people talking and he wrote it down. Crazy!
I could not put this book down. It took will and toddlers to do it. But then toddlers rule the world so yeah.
Ok who is probably gonna lay down on the floor and cry like a toddler because Brad Boney doesn't have a book coming out until July 2013.....I am I am!!
Just a side note:
I also love Austin, Texas. I don't live there but once a year (my only vacation) I go to Austin for the ACL festival (don't know about it here http://www.aclfestival.com/) it's awesome.
There was just enough of Austin in this book to remind me of why I love going once a year and staying as long as I can. Austin truly was it's on character in this book.
