I was originally going to read We Have Always Lived in the Castle but I decided that it was a little ambitious for my current schedule. I decided that a novella is much more realistic for me at the moment. And it was an excuse to read more Joe Hill so win, win really.

I ended up enjoying it. It did a good job of providing back story to the extent that a novella can and I did care about the characters somewhat. It was as brutal as a typical Joe Hill novel but a little on the lighter side since he didn't have the space. Having recently finished Sons of Anarchy :( the many emotions connected with bikers may have contributed to the enjoyment.

Maple (maplerie) | 307 comments Oh! I'm looking forward to reading this one. We Have Always Lived in The Castle is pretty good, but has a few places where it just drags along. It worked well for the furthering of the story though.
