The Marsh Queen by Virginia Hartman
1.0
I did not enjoy this book. It was very slow and the main character is not very likable, which makes for a pretty tedious read. The only reason I kept up with it, is that it is part of a reading challenge that I am doing.
The plot and pacing seemed awkward, for lack of a better term. It seemed like the author was very precise and verbose about some points (so many unnecessary canoe trips), and then other points seemed rushed or random (the climax and resolution were like 30 pages of this 370 page book).
I am giving this two stars instead of one, because it seemed like the author put a lot of work into this and was passionate about it, but I just don’t think it’s well written.
