I'm excited to read it!! I picked it up my local library this weekend, I didn't want to lose it by this Saturday. On Overdrive I was 42 of 10 copies! lol.
What are your first impressions, Claire? Mine, well I'm not crazy fond of English when it's not proper so it's a little hard for me to get into. It's definitely Southern speech. I'm hoping to get to page 50 tonight.

I'm about halfway through now and am getting into it. I feel like the dialect hit me hard at the beginning but now I'm getting used to it.

Oh, I’m not that far yet. Hope to have some easy time to read. I really like it, but notice I can only digest it if I can read uninterrupted

I completely agree! I have to have my undivided attention on this one.

I haven't really read much since the other night but I plan on finishing by tomorrow afternoon since it's due back to the library and I don't want to renew it/it might have a hold on it. :)
