I bought [Moonshine, Money, and Misery] by [[Jim Campbell]] at the Big Walker Mountain store. The store is also home to the lookout tower and is at the heart of the Crooked Road Music Trail in Wytheville, Virginia. It is the setting for this book. The author grew up in the mountains of Virginia and the story is a love letter to Appalachia. It is a love I share.

The book tells the story of Ida Mae, recently turned 18 and trying to figure out how to navigate the world. Her mistakes lead to the comedy in the book as she tries to fix them along with help from her family and friends. Mostly, they are trying to outsmart the moonshiners.
