tundragirl 's review for:

4.0

I might have given this book five stars but I can't forgive sloppy copyediting, especially when a book is marketed to young adults who already are losing their capacity for proper grammar.

To wit: you POUR syrup over pancakes; you PORE intently over books. FIVE TIMES our heroine was found pouring over this or that book or scripture. GAH!! And one time she was loathe to do something. *sigh*

Despite these grievances, I enjoyed this novel about a young woman who comes into her own while surviving a series of harrowing circumstances. I just hope they find a new editor for volume 2.
