I wanted to like this book more than I did. The ending was so absurdly unbelievable that it really ruined the book.. I wish it had been more historically accurate.
Blech. Nothing in particular was glaringly wrong. An interesting enough premise. Didn't really like how slow things moved. I think I was bothered by the age old issue of a female character's voice written by a male author. I basically skimmed it because I just didn't like it, but I was hoping it would get better. Not my thing, I guess.

I really like the writing. I know when I find myself exclaiming out loud about one of the characters then it’s a good read. I liked the main character as
she was a strong woman, especially in Boston
during the 1660s!

This was pretty good! I personally did not like the ending but I have very particular preferences for how stories should end so I wouldn't say it detracts from the overall book.
