Better than I thought it would be, though I do feel like Beth was only there to die.
I was a bit exhausted by all the ‘glass half full' mentally throughout the novel, as if everything works out for the best in the end, and everything is a lesson in spiritualty. I guess I just prefer a bit of wallowing in novels.
It did feel a bit like 1860s Gilmore Girls, what with the close knit family and overall upbeat mindset, even in hardship.
