Where the Lost Wander by Amy Harmon
5.0
4.5 Stars
From the moment I first heard of this book, I knew I had to read it. The Little House on the Prairie books started my love of reading, and I have always loved historical fiction set in the American West since then. This was not a disappointment. I loved it. It had all of the elements that I love in a book. I was completely immersed in this reading experience.
I did have to take a break from reading it for a couple of days because it felt too real to me and was causing me to feel some stress. The opening scene of the book foreshadows a pretty horrific scene, so I spent the first part of the book anxious about the future of the characters I was coming to deeply care about.
Also, I would have loved more details about how everything wrapped up at the end of the book. I thought the ending was satisfying; I just cared so much about the characters that I wanted to hear even more about their lives.
Truly, this book had my name written all over it and it will certainly make my favorites list of the year. This is the second book I have read this year by this author and I have really enjoyed them both. I look forward to reading more of her work.
