Review 170: November Road

November Road by Lou Berney
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I went into this book without knowing much about it. All I knew was the backdrop was the time of Kennedy’s assassination. Turns out that is the reason why a thug (good-looking guy from New Orleans) is on the run from being rubbed out next from his own boss no less, for knowing too much about what happened in Dallas. Then there’s a young wife who’s had too much of her drinking husband and leaves Oklahoma for a life in California taking her two young girls and the epileptic dog with her. Of course these two meet up on the road. The writing is well done, so I stuck with it for the story.

I received a free **signed** copy of this book at a library conference. I was not required to write anything about the book, but felt like it and, of course, the above opinions are my own.
