Did any of you ladies read the article about Highland grad, Matthew Hooton's debut novel Deloume Road?

I'm intrigued! The reviews are excellent and it is being compared to Alice Sebold's Lovely Bones, which I thoroughly enjoyed. It's still in hardcover, but you can buy it for under twenty dollars through Amazon.
If people are interested in reading it, I thought it might be fun to contact Matthew and see if he could attend our book club meeting. (He has family in the Valley, so it might not be such a longshot!)
What are your thoughts? Do we have a book for June yet?
