The Mighty Queens of Freeville by Amy Dickinson 306.874 Dic

The author of this book is also the author of the "Ask Amy" column. This is the story of her hometown and how she has always been pulled back to it. She has lived in London, D.C. and Chicago, but her heart is in the town of Freeville with its population of 458. A great number of Amy's relatives still live there and they've helped Amy through the ups and downs of being a single mother. It is not a book about earth-shattering events or about people who changed the course of history. It is just about people - and people are always interesting! It is written in a delightful way and I highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys a good book.
