I really loved this heartfelt, sincere but, also in places, rather cheeky read from Mandy Baggot. It was a real sensory experience - I felt the southern heat, tasted the ribs and sauce, heard the guitars! Somehow country rock is rendered so much sexier than your more 'traditional' rock gods and I loved it.The tragic Honor could so easily have become 2D, or annoying in her hesitancy to the impatient reader, but there's never even the threat of that happening. You really understand the psychological state that the attack left Honor in, which emphasises the respect you feel for her as she attempts to overcome it.While on the surface a simple good girl/bad boy story, MADE IN NASHVILLE is so much more than that, and the subplots and plot-twists keep on racking up, even right at the end, keeping you gripped.Get yourself a "beer and a bucket" and this great read - at the moment only 99p! - absolute bargain. I'm definitely going to read more from Mandy in the future.
