I just finished reading this book this morning. Wow. I haven't read a book this good in a long time. I actually sat on the couch and read it last night, got up this morning, and in between every chore, read it AGAIN. I couldn't find a good spot to stop, and I didn't want to! It started off a little slow, but as the pages flipped by, I found myself totally captivated by this woman's life.
Meet Sarah Agnes Prine, frontier woman to the max. She will make you feel like the biggest wimp by about halfway through the book, but you can't help but ache for her, love her, laugh with her and cheer her on. I could only hope to be half the woman she was.
In between all of the trials she faces, there is an amazing love story that will wrap you up so much that you feel it with her.
It brought me to tears more than once.
The last 10 pages are the most heart wrenching, and if the boys had not been home with me this morning, I probably would have bawled like a baby...BUT, they were looking at me a little weird as I was sniffing and holding it back.
I don't think boys get into books like girls do... :)
I have always been one of those people who really FEELS the books she reads!
Anyhoo, needless to say, I am very much looking forward to reading the next two books.
This is book #2, and Book #3 will be next! I will probably grab both off of the shelf at the library, just so I have them! If you get a chance, grab these yourself!
Oh, Tami! I am so excited to read these! I just finished a book from my bookclub and am in need of a good book. Off to Amazon I go to see if it comes on Kindle. Thanks for the review:)
