Crooked River Burning

At first Crooked River Burning was difficult to understand. I had lived in the suburbs of Cleveland my entire life and went to school right across the street from Shaker Lakes and have never heard of some of the people and places in the book. The fact that Cleveland used to be one of the largest citys is baffeling, but also fasinating. It's interesting and different to read a love story told from my own city and not New York or Los Angeles. This book ties together history and romance while revealing some of the city's secrets.
