レビュー

  • Good but sad

    We read this book for our local book club, and it was very good. It was well-written and engaging. Saying I "enjoyed" it might be a stretch because it's difficult to enjoy a book with such difficult subject matter. But it was a good read, and I'd recommend it to anyone.

  • Interesting and easy to read.

    Wonderfully written, fascinating story. Great storyteller. I know this writer personally and she is amazing!!

  • Good History class book

    I am not a reader and this book was actually good. I had to read it for a History class and it wasn't bland like some of the other text books. It is not a book that I would pick up on my own, but it kept my interest for the class.

  • Well Done

    The book was originally assigned reading for a class at the University of Idaho. Naturally, I did not read the book for class as the topic didn't interest me. I came across the book years after graduating in my things and decided to read it. I have re-read it twice. It is a well-written, emotion account. I truly learned to not judge a book by the cover here.
