The War I Finally Won by Kimberly Brubaker Bradley
3.0

3.5

I really enjoyed this, but for me it didn't quite reach the level of the first one. I was very moved by the first book, and while this one had a lot of sweet lessons and great moments that I appreciated due to being attached to the characters, it didn't feel as sweeping and beautiful.

However- I think it's excellent for kids, and this would be a great way to introduce kids to historical fiction. And, honestly 3.5 stars in this case is still a "good" rating. I don't think it was bad by any means, but I just liked the first one a lot more!
