pickI didn‘t know I‘d get regional history as well on this read. Interesting and curious, the author covers these crimes well. At times you cheer on the arsonists, the cops, and everybody between. Not as true crime as some prefer but thoughtful all the same
so-soThis true crime story of arson in rural Virginia started out strong. I was quickly brought into the story and wanting the backstory for the people involved.
However, as the story unfolds, I felt the writing became boring and the answers sparse.
It's an easy, quick nonfiction read, but I just personally found it lacking, especially in the courtroom scenes.
pickOverall, I‘d call this a weak pick. The concept was interesting and I really enjoyed the first 2/3 or so of the story. I just felt the last third or so of the book dragged once the court room stage started. I give the author kudos for the fact that the audiobook only lasted 7.5 hours, but even that felt a bit long with how the last 2.5 hours or so lost momentum.
panCome on, Baby, light my fire…
Read for a book club pick. Not really sure why it got turned into a book. I didn‘t think it was that interesting.

What a wild ride…a stretch of over 60 arsons in a small Eastern Shore town…a love story…volunteer fire fighters tirelessly out there night after night.
Glad to have read this for my first #Roll100 pick - definitely off to a great start. 🔥🔥🔥🔥
My #Roll100 pick (#24) is a #BOTM backlog from July 2017! 😮 Already excited for @PuddleJumper ‘s challenge, which will help me read some titles that have been waiting patiently in the wings for far too long. 📚📚

With my son being a firefighter, it was hard reading a true crime story on arson. Firefighters put their life on the line for such senseless acts but with that being said the book was really good and well written. Thankful for all firefighters and what they do daily!
