Title: Quick, straight-forward read.
Review: It's 1786 in England and Mary Broad is guilty of stealing a hat. Instead of being hung, she is transported to a new colony in Australia.On her journeys, Mary takes care of everyone around her. It didn't take long for me to get annoyed by her "too good to be true" behavior. She was also getting away with being snarky and demanding without punishment. Yes, she is smarter than everyone else. Again and again, it's pointed out by the narrator or even by Mary herself. Mary is smarter than everyone in the ship. Mary is smarter than the marines. Mary is smarter than anyone in the colony. Ugh!!!The writing is very plain, but gets the story across.Yes, I wanted to know what was next in the story, but I wasn't excited or looking forward to it. I didn't NEED to find out what happened next. This book didn't get much emotion out of me for some reason. I still enjoyed the storyline though. A fairly quick, straight-forward read for me.
