Hard Cash Valley by Brian Panowich

1.0

I struggled to get through this book. The plot was slow moving and the narrator changed so frequently it was difficult to keep track of which character was speaking.
The book was also full of misogynistic and racist language under the guise of southern colloquialisms. This language added nothing to build the southern feel of the novel and felt more like an excuse to use words that are no longer socially acceptable. I wouldn’t recommend this book to anyone and am not interested in reading other works by this author. If you are interested in southern gothic novels there are better written and less offensive alternatives.
