None No current Talk conversations about this book. This review was written for LibraryThing Member Giveaways. Reading the book off the kindle app on my phone made it feel like a long read but it was a decent one. There was enough details to keep you interested, though not sufficient enough to put it to the imagination. Not much time was spent on character descriptions for they were vague, if any, even Mrs. Baker's, the main protagonist. Both her sisters looked like a better or worse version of Mrs. Baker, no difference other than age. The book needs some revision I was confused a bit of the time; conversations between characters were hard to track, what read like narratives were actually player perspectives and transitions between days, years, and conversations were sudden and abrupt. Three stars because phone added to the confusion, making my overall reading experience unbearable. no reviews | add a review

I am not sure what the point of the book is supposed to be. There is no insight into her character. She is never held to account for her actions. Every now and then there is a short passage that makes you think this is going somewhere finally. But then it doesn't. At the very least, it would help to have a little more idea of how much of this is based on historical facts.
Before being properly published this would need a lot of editing. Proper chapter divisions would help a lot. I got this book as a review copy, and assume that both the text and the e-book realization are not in their final form. (
