Search - St. Dale

Sharon McCrum, who usually writes about characters from the North Carolina mountains, has surprised us with this one! We meet travelers on a memorial bus ride who love NASCAR and want to remember Dale Earnhardt! Her wit and wisdom come riding in, and the book is just fun to read! Entertaining, humorous, and profound!! A quick cozy read which is different!!

OK, I am one of those overeducated, cultural elitist types who snicker whenever someone (my husband) mentions NASCAR racing ... But after reading this book it all seems much more interesting like maybe I want to check it out. And the first time I made a Jeff Gordon reference that was accurate and timely ... my husband almost fell off his chair. The book is enjoyable for its characters and warmth, and the story carries you to the finish quite nicely. And you don't have to be a redneck to get it either.

The passengers on the Dale Earnhardt Memorial Pilgrammage are in for a lot of surprises.

Dale Earnhart is probably roaring with laughter at the title. I knew nothing about car racing, and found the background interesting and the story line okay.

absolutely loved the story!

I'm not a NASCAR fan, but I liked this book. McCrumb's characters are delightful!
