I had three loves in my life my daddy, him what my mama killed in cold blood; my son Henry, God rest him; and tall as an oak Riley Treadwell.
I lost all of 'em, one way or t'other, 'til Riley showed up on my stoop with a monster problem and tried to wiggle his way back into my life.
Only, weren't no monster bothering him; was the one bothering his ex-girlfriend what'd stirred up a hornet's nest out on Lake Burton amongst the muckity mucks. Weren't no never mind to me, see? I was fine letting well enough alone, 'cept curiosity got the best of me, and Riley, well. He weren't above using that silver tongue of his to persuade me 'round to his way of thinking. If I'da listened to my gut, maybe I woulda avoided stepping knee deep into somebody else's trouble.
Then again, I ain't never been one to heed a warning when monsters come a-calling.

I really enjoyed this book. From what I read of the critiques, people didn't think her countrified speech was real. Sounded just like everybody else around here to me. So, when you first start the book that's what catches your attention.But, it doesn't stay like that. She mourns for her baby boy. She's an investigator like none you've ever heard of before. She knows all about the deep woods, and she's as country as it gets. She's got a rough family and she's not particularly proud of them, but she loves them anyway. Then there is a mystery, there is something in the lake. Her uncle, an illegal moonshiner, tells her that something is messing with the water in the stream .
Sunshine starts to investigate. I won't run the story by telling you any more. I like the character she plays. I like the situation. The writer doesn't follow in anyone else's footsteps. I read so much, that to me, that is a tremendous advantage. Despite her countrified speech, it is obvious that she has a large and discerning vocabulary. I truly enjoyed the book, but I also enjoy Shakespeare and Mark Twain.

Greenwood Cove Sunshine Walkingstick Book 1 eBook Celia Roman Reviews
I really enjoyed this book.
I started reading it, but I couldn't get used to the way they spoke, so I never finished it.
Interesting story line. Good characters. Different read because of Appalachian dialect. I got used to it quickly and enjoyed the story. Look forward to the next book.
Excellent plot, characters eloquently and accurately created. Wonderful recreation of life in certain parts of Appalachia. Will be reading more by this author.
The accent gave me pause in the beginning but was easy to adapt to and stays consistent, adding flavor to the tale. Great protagonist, and the reader can easily empathize with her feelings of loss. She's got grit!
This book takes place in one of my favorite areas of the north Georgia mountains. A fun escape into some paranormal fantasy fiction. And yes, people really do talk that way.
This book stood out for me because it had substance to the story. It showed that Sunshine was no stranger to things that went bump in the night. She has a long history with Riley, and never quite believed anything could come of it since she was made to feel less than everyone else around her. The only thing that had changed that was her little boy Henry taken too soon from her life. And then Riley stepped back into her life and turned her inside out. What a tangled situation this was, but Riley wasn't willing to give up no matter the obstacles. This is definitely an author and a series that I will continue to seek out. Things aren't done with Sunshine and Riley, and I can't wait to see what Fame will do to Harley once he finds out his part in the whole mess that was the "Greenwood Five".
