I LOVED this book! I loved the setting (Ohio) which you don't see in a lot of historical fiction novels. What she does for a living (carousel painter) and the fact that she is the only woman in the factory. I just loved all the descriptions of the animals that they used on the carousel they were building in the book, how they decide to paint each animal, and also her struggle in accepting Christ. There was a small mystery of a stolen necklace and paintings--you know who steals them but still interesting to see how Carrie struggles in that time. I can only hope there will be a 2nd one in this series!
