The Well and the Mine by Gin Phillips

3.0

Really decent debut. It's hard to classify this book..it's sort of like chick lit but not brainless. I can't really explain..set in 1930s America during the depression..it explores racial divide..poverty..etc but nothing too heavy. It was a enjoyable easy read. Phillips pulled off the different voices telling the story wonderfully, smart move with Jack being able to take us to the future. If you think this will be some great murder mystery, forget it. Just decent writing. I will be certainly looking out for further work in the future.
