Thirteenth Child by Patricia C. Wrede
4.0
It's weird how a book about an alternate world's frontier can make me homesick, but this book REALLY made me homesick for Minneapolis.
However, during my reading I was really distracted by the fact that there weren't any Native Americans. I am sure this was intentional (but why?), but if the rest of the world was there, why weren't America's indigenous people? And was it just that no one lived in the plains and the West (and what about Canada?) but there were still indigenous people in Mexico and South America, or had they never made the crossing from the Eurasian continent at all? Maybe it'll be explained in the later books?
