Casual Vacancy - J. R. Rowling
I liked this book alot. What an excellent writer Rowling is. The descriptions of her characters and their negative thoughts were well developed and realistic. I found myself reading and enjoying every word, often laughing out loud, and disappointed when it ended. Many important issues were raised, e.g., poverty, rape, drugs, partisan politics, bullying, cutting. There's a lot here.
