A review by emilyclairem
The Country of the Pointed Firs by Sarah Orne Jewett

3.0

It took a while to get into this book. There is next to no plot, and if I didn't enjoy character-driven books I would not have liked this as much as I did. It's a lovely description of New England in the 1800s and of a few of the people who may have lived in that time. I did enjoy that aspect of it. But it doesn't leave a lasting impression on you, and can get very dry at certain points.
