3.0

This isn't my normal type of book, so if I liked historical fiction more maybe my rating would be higher.  I kind of just pushed through in the beginning because I'm reading for a reading challenge and I refused to give up.  But it wasn't as interesting and action packed as my usual fantasy books.  However, it did grow on me more and my goodness so many things happened over the course of the year.  Anna is a very strong woman but the most interesting part of her story to me was what happened in the epilogue honestly.  But I guess that it took her growth within this year to allow her to get to that different side of her.
