I hope you don't mind if I link your review to mine!

In my opinion, it is a much better book. There were a couple of others that year as well that I would have thought would have won ahead of this.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05554217416500328610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7605456781483914021.post-60461833646180813552010-01-06T21:01:51.332-06:002010-01-06T21:01:51.332-06:00I totally agree with you.

Then, I read another book by Julia Glass called The Whole World Over and loved the story and characters. Fenno is a minor character in this book and it made me more interested in reading Three Junes. I then read Three Junes and liked it a lot and appreciated Ms. Glass's writing style. I did prefer The Whole World Over, you may want to read that next.Bonniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06838832109510581167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7605456781483914021.post-77681893392308555512010-01-04T23:02:14.345-06:002010-01-04T23:02:14.345-06:00For some reason, I started this book a few years a...For some reason, I started this book a few years ago, but never finished it.
