4.0
The work follows how the lives of a family from a small town in Alabama are affected by the Civil War. I usually steer clear of historical fiction revolving around wars because they're all battles or overly romanticized. The author of this work does an excellent job at finding a balance; this is one of the most realistic works of fiction I've read concerning the CIvil War. The author did her research. The characters are also well-written and aren't static, making the work engaging.
