This book was not the most interesting to me. I didn't hate it, but it just felt like a book written by a man for men. I'm sure it's amazing to people who are super into the Civil War, but just not really my thing. I'd recommend it to anyone who likes war stories or American history.

it was fine... i heard it was inspiration for a farewell to arms which is what made me wanna read it but i found myself not really able to get into the story, even thought the writing is objectively good. maybe just not my gig!
