This is one of my favorite books right now. It is about a young girl and her experiences during the Civil War. It is really a coming of age as she realizes she has thoughts, feelings and opinions that may not be the same as those around her. Of course there is a little romance, and suspense as she plays an important role in the lives of those fighting the war. It is also filled with the emotions and experiences you can expect a 16 year old girl to go through at this time of her life, but even more so as she lives through this brutal and pivotal time of our nations history.
You can find Annie Between the States in the young adult section of your library or book store.
Welcome to my very casual, very informal book club. I wanted a chance to share the books I love with others and hear what everyone likes or dislikes about them. Ideally I will post a new book each month. You can read as fast or slow as you like and leave comments about the book if you so desire. I am not as well read as I'd like to be so feel free leave your book suggestions under the post, "Future Book Suggestions." At the bottom of the blog you will find resources for buying books online, but most libraries will have almost anything you need. Also at the bottom of the page are guidelines for leaving your comments. Happy reading!
