Back in the Country by Alexandra Hale
5.0
Back in the Country is a brilliant debut novel from Alexandra Hale. She has created a family and small town full of character and heart that you want to visit again and again. You want to be invited home for chicken potpie or meet a friend for a meal at Smokin’ Joes or enjoy the music at Brew, Q ‘n Boogie.
This book is full of giggles and snort-laugh moments, melt your heart and teary moments and several please-pass-me-the-fan moments. Marlee and Waylon have a realism to them that I loved, from their appearance to their strengths, flaws and insecurities. I loved Waylon’s protectiveness and loyalty, and hurt for his doubts about his worthiness. I loved it when Marlee found her voice and made sure the men in her life heard her. I look forward to returning to Clementine Creek.
