Well I started reading "Winter´s Bone " by Daniel Woodrell and it´s quite good. I don´t think the book is as awesome as the critics say, but it´ s very well written and sometimes really thrilling. Oh maybe i should tell you what it is about.
The main character is the 16-year-old Ree Dolly , she lives with her 2 younger brothers and her sick mother in the Ozark Mountains. One day a police officer appears and tells her that her father , who left them some months ago, didn´t pay the bill for their house and that they have to leave it in some months. So Ree Dolly drives through the whole town for some help and she realizes that her father had many enemies and that her curiosity about what happend to him is very unwelcome. The officer visites her a second time and tells her that if she can prove the death of her father, she must not move from her home. After some time she also gets help from her uncle "Teardrop".
Well I couldn´t read further. But I´ll tell you next week how the book ends
