How many of you have read this book? I got it from the Sumter County library and could not stop myself from actually yelling at the book. Wow, that sounds scary!

It is a ridiculous (non-fiction) book written by some 30-something author who comes to The Villages to see why his former neighbors like the place so much. The author spends most of his time, it seems, at Katie Belle's hanging around with a guy he calls Mr. Midnight (we all probably know at least one person meeting this persona). The author bashes The Villages for it's no-children policy and makes dire predictions for the future of the place.

The bottom line, I think, is the author is jealous he cannot move here.

I am sure this has been posted and reviewed before, but let me know your thoughts and then tell me if I am crazy to yell at a book. Well, that part is optional - my wife already has her opinion.
