Pious
Author: Kenn Bivins
Paperback: 264 pages
Publisher: Two Harbors Press (October 1, 2010)
Language: English
ISBN: 978-1936198665

Carpious is the perfect neighbor.  Someone who is a value to the community.  One that you want children to look up to and admire.  

He attends church regularly, has a greatly successful job, keeps his yard and house perfectly maintained and is dating a wonderful woman with a small son.  The world is his oyster.

Then a new neighbor moves in down the street.  A neighbor with a very unsavory past and prison time to show for it.  The neighbors come to Carpious to ask him to represent the neighborhood – they want him to ask this undesirable person to move away.  Unfortunately, to do that Carpious might end up uncovering parts of his own past he prefers to keep hidden. 

This book quickly develops a twisty, unexpected storyline with page gripping events.  Characters show sides of themselves that will shock you, secrets come out.   

I tore through this book in a day, unable to put it down - that would require waiting to find out what happened next.  This is Kenn’s first novel and I wait impatiently for the next.

Welcome to the Dew Book Review Section!

Welcome to the Book Review Section at the Dew!

If you are a publishing house or author who has a book Southern in nature, or by a Southern writer, that you would like the Dew to review, please contact me at dewonthekudzu@gmail.com and I will provide you mailing information. (Wink wink, nudge nudge... the Dew has been getting a little lax about the Southern rule recently... just saying.)

The Dew tries it's best to have a review online as close to the publication date as possible, depending on the number of books waiting for review.

Please note, book reviews are the Dew's "business". The Dew does NOT post it's reviews on other sites. Please do not request that we do so. Thank you.

BUT, if I review your book, you may feel free to share it wherever you wish!
