Title: Appalling
Product review: If the characters in this book typify the American south, I'm moving to the Yukon. But I know that can't be right! Surely not all southern mamas are self-absorbed, bipolar dipsomaniacs. And surely we shouldn't have to read about the few that are and - worse yet - be expected to glorify them. I'm a huge fan of black humor, but child abuse written about in this way gives me chills. I'm with the writer/reviewer who was moved to throw the book across the room at one point. Wells had a good thing going with the prequel, Little Altars Everywhere. She should have left it at that.
