Growing Up Dead in Texas by Stephen Graham Jones

5.0

Even though I have never been to West Texas I feel like I've been there now after reading this book. The writing was so vivid that when he talks about the fire, I could smell it and taste it. When I first finished the book I couldn't decide whether or not to give it a 4 or 5, but since I'm still thinking about it hours later I decided that it was a 5. It is also a book I think I could read again and again and I would discover new things each time. Anyone who loves great writing will enjoy reading this book.
