Madelene D. (Madelene) - reviewed on 1/1/2010 + 19 more book reviews

This is book number one in a series of 3 books. It's a Christian book and has passages of the bible scattered about in it. It is bases upon women and their point of view as things flow along. I would say this would be a good book to give to a teen to read. It show's the struggles of women who set off on the Oregon trail to make a new life with their husbands and children. Tragedy strikes but the women struggle their way through and end up All Together in One place. I really liked it and kept all 3 books to reread myself and pass down to my daughter when the time comes. It has some action in it as the tragedies go down but it also has a lot of love and comradeship. Another thing I liked is right before you start reading the first chapter on the opposite page is a list of characters which goes along in all the other books as people change, leave, and enter this circle of women.
