Day 2!

I read this book several years ago and remember enjoying it.

Fabulous audiobook!!!

A friend recommended this to me for my #NorthCarolina read. This is beautifully written. I‘ve heard some complain it‘s too wordy but I think the author writes to illustrate the story. I could visualize so much. This is definitely tragic with a host of unsavory characters but still a great read. I‘ll be looking out for ore books by Wiley Cash.

This has to be the most bizarre and unique book I‘ve ever read. Written after the trial of a snake-handling preacher who tried to kill his wife, this is the perfect example of faith that borders on obsession. I won‘t soon forget this one.

Some “Home” titles #Homesick #AMonthofSongs

My first Wiley Cash. I‘m a sucker for snake-handling Pentecostal villains, what can I say.

It isn‘t every day that snake handling comes up as a topic, but when it does, I‘m interested. This is a firsthand look at the mysterious and mystical practice of handling poisonous snakes in religious worship.

Covington‘s firsthand account of living and worshipping among this unique breed is authentic, balanced and is the closest to what I think an accurate portrayal could be.
