Appalachian Daughter by Mary Jane Salyers
slow-paced
2.0
This one was a bit of a dud for most of our group. Unfortunately, the story didn't seem to lead anywhere. We follow Maggie as she endures life in the Appalachian region through high school. And although some pretty big things happen, you get to the end feeling like nothing big happened. One member said they had to look to see if it was a part of a series because the ending didn't seem like a true ending. 🤷🏻♀️ It's got quite a lot of good reviews on Goodreads though.
If you struggle to remember names (as I do) you may not want to do audiobook for this. There were quite a few characters, many with double names, and many similar!
If you're interested in the struggles of growing up as a woman in the Appalachian region of the US during the 1950s, this one is for you. But if not, maybe pass on it.
