Great Southern Grit Lit here! A nice cast of characters make for an entertaining tale of a boomtown and all that comes with it. I loved the strong women characters. I'd definitely read another one from this author.
Thank you to NetGalley for an advance copy of this book. Grit finely done!
This book had a lot of potential. The first 75 pages I was hooked and then it started getting drawn out. It didn't read like A.F. Carter was writing a book. It read like A.F. Carter was writing "Boomtown" the movie. The Yards was one of my favorite books. Boomtown will be one I forget and never look back at as enjoyable. Way too many people in the book to follow. I got lost saying "who is that again?" I recommend you check out The Yards by A.F. Carter and pass on Boomtown by A.F. Carter.
Rating: 5 stars
