“I picked this book up at a book sale thinking to sell it on eBay, but when I looked it up, the value wasn't worth listing and I kept it for myself to read. I am glad I did. An interesting tale set in Alaska, this story is very interesting. A bunch of stories in the lives of people living in the frozen north. It is like getting a peek into people's homes and lives.
If you would like to read a book by the man who made Motel 6 famous, a book that has a 'down home' quality, and a book that will make you alternately laugh and shake your head in disbelief, you may very well enjoy this book.”

If you enjoyed this book, I recommend checking out the television series "Corner Gas." It has similar characters and themes, only based in small town Saskatchewan instead of Alaska.”
