This is the first book in a series of three. I have yet to read the other two.
Another slow starter, but well worth it. The author wrote this story based on the diary of her great great grandmother.
I loved this book because although there are a few love stories involved, it is not the focal point of the novel. Written in diary form, you really feel the story in reality, not like a sappy love story with a fairytale ending. Her life was hard, and takes you for an emotional ride as she faces bandits, Indians, death, heartbreak, and more. Her life was hard and the book leaves you feeling like you've grown right along with her.
I can't wait to finish the series.
