Top five books about Mississippi published in the past year

At Country Living, Lyn Roberts, the general manager of Square Books in Oxford, Mississippi, tagged five top books about Mississippi published in the past year, including:
The past provides rich material for novels, such as The Tilted World (William Morrow) by husband and wife team Beth Ann Fennelly (a regular Country Living contributor) and Tom Franklin. The story is set in the Delta at the time of the 1927 flood, which was a huge disaster for the state.
