The lovesick cure

Sweet book, but the romance between Jesse and Piney seemed underdeveloped. There was the alleged conflict of Jesse eventually leaving town, but there was never any real crisis and while the Jesse and Piney both admitted to themselves that they were in love, I'm not sure they ever said the words out loud to each other! Relationship between Piney's teenage son, Tree, and his girlfriend Camryn was much more engaging.

I liked the way Morsi presented the Ozark lifestyle - neither glorified it nor mocked it. Aunt Will could have been a stereotypical wise woman or interfering busybody but she was somewhere in between.
