Review:
Another great book! Sarah goes through trial after trial. Struggle after struggle. She is a very strong woman. That is what life was like in the Territories. Those Pioneer women suffered much. I felt as if I was there every step of the way. I enjoyed it immensely and was surprised at how much of a love story there was in this sequel, considering the ending of These is my Words. Warmed my heart. Bravo. It's a wonderful addition to the Sarah Diaries. This is a perfect book for Book Clubs and women all over! You much read this series. I'm obsessed.

ReplyDeleteI have definitely put the first book on my list of must-reads for my book challenge. I'll let you know what I think, but I am excited to read it after your review. :)
ReplyDeleteNice review!
ReplyDeleteHi Mary, this book sounds really interesting!
ReplyDeleteOh and I really really loved Shannon Hale's sequels! I'd get ENNA BURNING first, because it directly follows The Goose Girl.
:D Amelia
I read These is My Words a while ago and LOVED it. Weird, but I had no idea there were two sequels until I read your blogs!! I picked them both up yesterday, can't wait to read them!
ReplyDeleteThe cover of this books seems familiar to me. I think I might have seen it somewhere before. Nice review!
