Book Review of Bingo Night at the Fire Hall: Rediscovering Life in an American Village

Bingo Night at the Fire Hall: Rediscovering Life in an American Village
freebird1985 avatar reviewed on


This book was an enjoyable read about a woman who left the "city life" and moved to a home on a mountain in a rural med-east state. Her activities are interesting and all of the characters are real, alive, believable and intriguing. I grew up in a city just off the Blue Ridge Parkway, in the the Appalachian Mountains, so her book was assuredly authentic. I found it a good story about people with a history and, perhaps, a future where they reside...as long as "urban sprawl" doesn't swallow them and their way of life right up!
