I was actually surprised at how much I liked this book. This is a very quick read and I finished it in a day. Part was due to the fact that it is not a very long book but part was due to the fact that I found the book really interesting. I really wanted to see what happened next.
I will say that I had to overlook the fact that it was written by the main character who is a farm girl that just learned to read and write. Some may find that irritating but I didn't find it so bad I couldn't stand the book.
It is a sad book so be prepared. Mary is an interesting character though who is quite matter of fact. I kept hoping something good would come her way but this isn't really a happy ending book. Either way I felt the story was well told.
