I’m of two minds on this one. 4 stars or 3? I was rolling along just fine, really enjoying the story, then the last part of the book lost me. It seemed a little bit rambling and weird, left me thinking “what just happened?” in the minds of some of the characters. Maybe I missed some clues early on, I don’t know. I will probably try another of the author’s works, though.

In HOW FIRE RUNS, Charles Dodd White has deftly crafted a diverse cast of characters whose stories intersect in an authentically rendered southern Appalachian setting. Important and timely social themes, presented with sensitivity and heart.

I got about halfway through. Don’t have it in me to continue. Might give it another try sometime. It’s the kind of book you need to be in the mood for.
