January 7, 2023 Crooked Branch (Jocelyn’s Pick)

Discussion: Jocelyn- Overall I enjoyed the story. A quick easy read. Felt like it could have been 600pgs. Would have like to hear more about Ginny’s life. Just felt like the story needed more. Would recommend. 3.5/5 Julie- A heartbreaking depressing book. Made me curious about my people. Only wanted to read Ginny’s story. Liked it, but surprised cause I thought I wouldn’t. Would recommend. 3/5 Ali- Thought the book was going to be supernatural, but no. Got me discouraged. Remined me of the Dustbowl. Good book overall…surprisingly. Wish there was more of the historical story. Would recommend 3.5/5 Caitlin- Enjoyed the start. Only liked the historical part of the story. Hated the ending, too feel good.
