A Blue and Gray Christmas by Joan Medlicott
Genre: Fiction
Rating: 2/5
Summary (From Goodreads): In this stunning holiday story, a cache of Civil War–era letters and diaries sweeps the ladies of Covington up into a dramatic and heartwarming historical saga that inspires them to plan an unforgettable Christmas for two families forever changed by war.
I found it difficult to read this book, for a few reasons: one, it’s in the middle of a series and I haven’t read the others. Two, the writing isn’t that good, the style seems odd. The dialogue is unrealistic and the characters are not that likeable.
However, I did enjoy the diary and the letter parts of the book—they were written in an enchanting way, and I could hear the voices and the accents of the writer while I read.
I didn’t finish this book, I felt no attachment to it and found myself skipping pieces and forcing myself to read it. I guess this one just wasn’t for me.
