susan_j 's review for:

A Girl of the Limberlost by Gene Stratton-Porter
3.0

Loved this spirited, self-reliant heroine. She is full of integrity. I loved how the author made her grapple with some really difficult situations; I was expecting something along the lines of _Pollyanna_ and found something more like _True Grit_. I thought the novel's pacing was a little strange in some parts, but otherwise there's not much to object to. An edifying read.
