I especially loved the spelling of the world 'probly.' Very nice.Īnyway, even putting all that aside.this is really an amazing book. But in this case, I loved it! It made all the characters sound like the people I talk to everyday. Usually, the overuse of 'ya'lls' and 'go get 'em' type abbreviations get on my nerves.

It was bloody, and her eyes were large and full of fear. 'Mom?' My vision was murky, but I could see her face. The pain was excruciating, and I was aware that I was dying.
