Title: Great American history overview, an "ok" novel
Review: It's very well written! It's a great historical overview of American history from 1900 to the present time. It weaves medical, social, and historical events into the lives of ONE family.... and that's the part that doesn't work for me.. This family has "one of everything"! Rather unlikely.... It's the history-lover part of me that actually want to purchase this book. I think this book would be a good "overview" read for high school students studying American history. The author has done her research homework. I find it to be a fictional narrative history more than a novel. Not a slam, just how I describe it.
Is the review positive or negative?
