Griffin is rolling in his grave

Revisado: 10-23-24

The story line has departed from believable and entered fantasy. Get back to a more realistic storyline.

Great story, would have been better without the virtue signaling and Trump derangement syndrome

Revisado: 03-10-23

Title says it all. The background music was distracting. I don’t understand the need to bring in politics that add nothing to the story other than virtue signaling.

Good story, gratuitous profanity

Revisado: 03-03-23

The profanity did nothing to enhance the story and felt unnecessary. Otherwise a good story.

Good story, could do without the virtue signaling

Revisado: 12-11-20

I don’t understand why an author would choose to denigrate at least half of their readers by making negative comments about people who support President Trump. The comments were gratuitous and added nothing to the story. Keep it up if you only want leftists to buy your books; you may be surprised how many people don’t share your political viewpoint.

Good book, could use less value signaling

Revisado: 08-14-20

The story would have been better without the stereotyping of southern people as racist that really added no value to the story.

Constant Childish Banter Between Characters

Revisado: 03-29-18

Story was good but childish banter between characters got old very quickly. Real people don’t interact that way 24/7 like the characters in this book. The banter is a distraction.

Not typical Grisham

Revisado: 05-25-16

This book is a dry documentary compared to other Grisham books, I could not wait for it to end.

Don't Drink The Environmentalists Leftist Cool Aid

Revisado: 03-09-15

Would you try another book from John Grisham and/or Catherine Taber?

Yes, because I heave enjoyed previous books by him. However, I will write him off if he tries to promote a liberal environmentalist agenda again.

Has Gray Mountain turned you off from other books in this genre?

Not yet but close.

Would you listen to another book narrated by Catherine Taber?

Yes

If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Gray Mountain?

I would try to be more balanced and not attempt to stereotype Republicans or Corporations. There are many good Coal Companies, and most people from the coal producing regions are grateful for the jobs they create in the mines and supporting businesses.

Any additional comments?

I grew up in the region discussed in this book and found the author's portrayal of it very unrealistic.

Anti-Christian, Anti-Conservative Liberal Bias

Revisado: 06-18-14

Would you try another book from Colin Woodard and/or Walter Dixon?

No, the author's disdain for conservatives, Christians, and southerners was clearly on display.

What could Colin Woodard have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?

Stuck with the facts and provide a balanced view.

Any additional comments?

It appears the author cherry picked quotes to make conservatives, Christians, southerners, and republicans appear racist and stupid while trying to make environmentalist, liberals, and democrats out to be geniuses out to save America from the idiots in the first group. The fact that most of the racist leaders in the South were democrats was never mentioned, he even referenced KKK Wizard Senator Byrd but failed to identify him as a democrat while referencing the party of every wacko on the other side.

Don't waste your time on this propaganda.
