I chose to read this book because of the title. I loved the name Miss Dimple! It was a little slow at first, but then I really got into it and enjoyed it tremendously. The characters were engaging and the plot had some twists and turns. It takes place in a small town in Georgia during WWII in the year 1942. One of the main characters, Charlie Carr, is a teacher like Miss Dimple, and has a brother in the war, possibly in North Africa. She has a beau that leaves for Navy medic training. She's not sure if she loves him or not. And then Miss Dimple disappears and no one can figure out what happened to her! Miss Dimple turns out to be one formidable woman! I like reading fiction set in WWII. It has always interested me, probably because my Dad and 3 Uncles and numerous cousins were in the war. I wasn't even born yet. I enjoyed all the expressions relevant to that era and learning about the rationing. It was a fun read.
