Another good book
While I have enjoyed this book (and the series) tremendously, I found the narration to struggle to be consistent between the characters’ voices. Miranda specifically was went back and forth. Also, the deep southern portrayal of Velma was a little over the top. I am from Kentucky and while I know that we certainly have a southern “twang”, the voice portrayed was representative of much deeper in the south.
