LOL! And, honestly, my husband lives in overalls so I guess I missed what was offensive! I think it was critical for the audience to get a glimpse of the other characters through Grant's eyes, and that was very well done. I also found Hailey's insecurity endearing and in no way found that she was made to look stupid. I agree with you that I was hooked from the start. The author tells a very gripping story. I loved Son of a Soldier and so did my teenage daughters! I definitely recommend it!Ambernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3023966867409170094.post-85344070057205502032012-07-26T08:06:10.969-05:002012-07-26T08:06:10.969-05:00Son of a Soldier is a fantastic book, but I have t...Son of a Soldier is a fantastic book, but I have to disagree with the reviewer quite a bit. I did not find the book offensive at all. As a proud 50 year old southerner who has spent her entire life in small town Mississippi, I related to and appreciated all the characters. I was not offended because I know several people who live life like the characters in this book who are dear to me! I do agree with the reviewer that Brown is a very talented writer. Loved seeing that Son of a Soldier was featured on this blog. It is a favorite of mine.Tammy Jonoreply@blogger.com
