He has done it again with this SUPER novel.

JR Hatmaker does it again with this book! If you love mysteries- this is the book for you. His gift of writing is a treasure.

A great book! If you have lived in or have relatives in Appalachia, then you will appreciate this book! There are humorous true life descriptions of how life REALLY was in a coal mining town. Also, if you want to know how boys 8-12 live their lives as one big adventure, this is a book you need to read.

Worth the read.

If you've ever felt like a misfit and you like a good mystery, "The Coalwood Misfits" is a must read! This wonderful book about a group of boys coming of age in a small West Virginia mining town, is right on target! The characters are strangely interesting and mysterious. You will love the funny main character, Bobby. The author has obviously taken this character right from his own experiences and transformed him into a real boy, popping right out of the pages of the book. This is a great book for children 10 and up--my kids loved it! Be warned--every chapter keeps you wanting more. I can't wait for the next book! Thanks JR

The Coalwood Misfits is a delightfully funny book written from the perspective of a very humorous character named Bobby. I want everyone on my Christmas list to have a copy of this realistic view of a young boy growing up in a small mining town. The authors did a good job in capturing Bobby's story.

homers books were great but the coalwood misfits gives another view of the way of life in coalwood.it is more on the fun side of life growing up in coalwood and i guess all boys will be boys some just get caught. i highly recommend the book .its just plain funny.good job bob
