I finished this book before the weekend but I haven't taken the time to write and it is almost another weekend, so I thought it was high time.
This is a very good book. This book takes place after the Civil War in the South. It is about a boy who is told that his father is bad blood because he fought with the Yankees even though he lives in the South. This is a book about learning heritage and what the boy does after learning what his Dad's blood is all about.
I found myself carried away in another time and place and I enjoyed experiencing an era in history through books. I realize it is fiction but it was fun to get caught up in another world.
A place to record the books I've read. With a short review on each. I strive to never tell too much of the story to ruin it for anyone. BUT, if it is a picture book, I often tell the endings. “Of course anyone who truly loves books buys more of them than he or she can hope to read in one fleeting lifetime. A good book, resting unopened in its slot on a shelf, full of majestic potentiality, is the most comforting sort of intellectual wallpaper.” ― David Quammen
