daringreader13 's review for:
A Drowned Maiden's Hair: A Melodrama
by Laura Amy Schlitz
3.5 stars out of 5
This was longer at times than it needed to be, but I enjoyed it overall. Learning how someone could scam someone into believing they are able to speak with the dead was interesting and the whole secret child thing was interesting. However I feel as though one of the characters was very emotionally and even sometimes would become physically abusive towards the main character. It wasn't really talked about that much, although this was the time period so I guess it makes some sense, however I feel like there should have been something to tell the children that this is aimed to be the audience for, that that behavior is not ok. Overall an alright read.
