Ann McMan

"Backcast" is "Fried Green Tomatoes" meets "The Big Chill" by way of "A River Runs Through It."

Most people think Ann McMan is great at writing humor but, for me, her biggest strength is the way she strips characters bare and exposes their souls. That's what I love about Backcast the most. 

I wrote a longer review on my site (C-Spot Reviews) but it pretty much says what I wrote above.

(I went 4.5 on Booklikes but rounded up here)

This book started a little slow for me, and after the first chapter I thought I was going to hate it. Then we started to get a better introduction to the supporting characters. The I was quickly sucked into the weird cast of characters and their snippets of back stories. One of the things I enjoyed was matching the authors to the essay's.
