Helpful Score: 3

Incredible read... goes deep into the texture of New Orleans, way beyond the Katrina story which doesn't show up until 3/4 through the book. Extremely well-researched yet reads like a novel. Even though you know what's coming in 2005, you can't wait to find out how each character is affected and responds. Takes you through some of the frightful experiences during that time but ultimately proves the power of the human spirit. If you want to "know what it means to miss New Orleans," or if you just want a fascinating read about remarkable, real-live human beings then read this book!
