informative fast-paced

4.0

This is a very short book. If you are looking for words or sayings that were/are used in Southeast Kentucky, this book does that. I was reading a heavy topic book and needed something to give me a moment to breathe (and took me home). I listened to this and I knew every word (I still use them). I had heard the sayings as a child. It did what I wanted it to do. It lost a star because it uses virtual voice and that does take away from the experience.  There is no voice like an Appalachian voice.
