Fever 1793 by Laurie Halse Anderson
4.0
Another book by Laurie Halse Anderson that I really liked. I'm not a big fan of historical fiction but this one was really good. I love when a author does their "homework" because I think it really shows in the writing.
I like Mattie. She went through a lot in the story but she always kept her attitude positive. I think a lot of girls can relate to her even now even though it happened 230ish years ago. I never knew how much yellow fever was such a problem in the United States. It just sounded gross and people were just gross about it too.
I listened to the story which I would totally recommend. Good "actor"...she made her come alive!
