Comments:
• I couldn’t get into this particular book. I tried on a couple of occasions but just didn’t find a connection with the narrator’s voice. I stayed in the childhood section of the book and didn’t move beyond. – Hillary
• The beginning was slow for me; but once they moved to Europe, I feel that I got really engrossed. – Chelsea
• The further I got into this book, the sadder I felt. – Kerry
• I was completely pulled into this story and found the power structure fascinating and horrifying. – Steph
• I really enjoyed this read. Loved getting into the characters and enjoyed the historical references. – Carrie
• I loved the history and actually looked up a bunch of references while I was reading, but I was shocked by the familial violence. It was not the picture I think of when I think of the families of our founding fathers. – Danica
