Hmmm.. this one was more like 3 and 1/2... 
 I don't know.. didn't connect with this one like I did with Ephraim's story.. for me there were a lot of places where I felt it drag for no good reason.. plus, at the end, it all felt rushed.. I wanted to read more about her life with the Williams and wanted to know more about Joshua.. wanted to know a lot of things.. alas, didn't happen. 
 All I know is, I'm really looking forward for the next book ;)
