I just finished reading One Foot in Eden by Ron Rash. I actually bought it about a year ago, and then put it on my shelf and forgot about it, because it isn't my usual type of book. I finally picked it up again a few days ago, and then kicked myself for ignoring it for so long; it was incredible. According to the blurb on the back, it's just a murder mystery, but I think that a misleading description. It was about life, and where it can lead you. It isn't a happy book, certainly, but it is elegantly and poignantly written. I would recommend it to anyone, and will happily lend it out. Just ask me.
