This book was a quick read for me, which was refreshing after reading the clunker I just finished by Wally Lamb (it was a great book, don't get me wrong, but EPIC!) I gave it three stars because I couldn't quite get a finger on the main character, Lillian. The story was interesting, sad in many parts, and I enjoyed the time period and historical references. However, her journey seemed undeveloped in certain parts and there was a definite lack of denouement. I think if Wally Lamb had written this novel then it could have been a 1500 page story. She does trek across American and up to Alaska! However, this story has shy of 300 pages - there just wasn't enough time to develop every character and detail Lillian's journey. I was suprisingly satisfied with the ending. Not what you except. That alone may be a good reason to tempt you to read this book.

I love that this read like an action movie :)
