wanda12 's review for:

The Talented Miss Farwell by Emily Gray Tedrowe
4.0

Definition of Becky Farwell: small town girl, takes advanced classes in high school, brains behind her father's agricultural business, has a keen eye for noticing everything.

At 17, she goes to work for the town of Pierson, Illinois. There she notices mistakes in accounting, mis-spent funds, lack of checks and balances. Around the same time her desire for art awakens and begins to take advantage of the town's funds.

The book spans 30+ years and all Becky does to satisfy her addiction, and cover up that addition.

My only compliant is some parts of the book dragged on too much.

Overall, very enjoyable.
