Annie Between the States is a brilliant historical fiction piece. It was like I was in one lengthy journey, except I could pause and start again when the time was right. Elliot captures the reasders mind with the excellent feeling of being right there, and the adventures throughout the story.
This book stands to be the fullest and most marvelous book of this type. Throughout the story I was putting myself in the same position as Annie and thinking to live a life like that. These kinds of books like Annie Between the States always keep me in focus because they are from another time I am unfamiliar of. Reading from Annie's perspective, I felt like I woul always have done what she did throughout the whole story.
I highly recommend this to anyone who loves adventure and history, but likes a long and fast read
