Good book

What to do, where to go, what to see in Nantucket. Excellent guide

it was funny

I received this book as part of a book club and dove right in. It takes place in Buffalo around the year 1900 and weaves all sort of history into a fictional murder mystery tale. Though not a traditional hang on the edge of your seat mystery, the story is told by the headmaster of a private school whose life intertwines with all sorts of residents of Buffalo, particularly the upper class. Her story and background unfolds in the pages and connects the dots to many different characters.

5 STARS!!! no explanation needed.

I think it is cute. I like how it is a diary. I like the illustrations and how it has chapters.

I am not a big sci fi reader, and tend to prefer my fiction realistic, but I really, REALLY enjoyed this. Much of the setting--and the gender issues--are so fully and realistically portrayed that it was a perfect cross-over book for me. I thoroughly enjoyed how it made me think, but at the same time I was engaged with the characters.

I really like the illustrations. My favorite illustration was when Sassafras had Caterflies in his fur.

It was a really good book! I highly recommend.

I like his clothes. And I like that he is soft.
