Title: Dry and Boring
Review: This book is cerainly an exception to the "rule" that "Dear America" books are always good. I don't know...it just didn't draw me in. I couldn't finish it (a rare thing for someone who finishes a book 99% of the time!) and there really didn't seem to be any action, save for Amelia endlessly tending her lighthouse. Her family relationships were a little strange and unrealistic, too...I thought divorce really NEVER happened back then. This diary seems more focused on HISTORY than PEOPLE, and I think "people-focused" historical fiction is what makes the "Dear America" books so believable and well liked. I was disappointed by this book...but don't worry, you really can expect more for almost any other "Dear America" book.
