The Pecan Man by Cassie Dandridge Selleck was a recommendation by my good with color quilting friend.
Her description - The Pecan Man - very good - like To Kill a Mockingbird.
The Internet goes further -
When I *looked up The Pecan Man by Cassie Dandridge Selleckup, there is a sequel, The Truth About Grace. I sent my friend a text, so she now knows there is a second book.
*I look up the works of every author I read, it pays off hugely. I recommend two habits - keep a list of everything you read - look up the complete works of the author before you read their book.
I listened to The Pecan Man and The Truth About Grace, both by Cassie Dandridge Selleck, on Libby.
These were very quick reads normally at 6 and 7 hours each. For this pair, I could increase my pace to 1.25 which brought the times down to 4.8 and 5.6 hours each with no chipmunks.
Fine tuning the speed makes a real difference in my audio reading comfort. Too slow of a reading pace really drags down a book for me. I increase the speed to what sounds normal. Youngest and my husband increase even more, so it does not sound normal, I can’t stand that.
I liked The Pecan Man and The Truth About Grace, both by Cassie Dandridge Selleck, very much.
And yes, The Pecan Man IS To Kill A Mocking Bird meets The Help.
The Truth About Grace is even better.
