4.0

It took me awhile to get into this book, but I actually found the plot twists unexpected and was really engaged with the ending, despite the fact that I found it to be slightly cheesy and simplistic. I also appreciate the research that was done into the history of Puritan colonies and early New England, it shows throughout the book.
