The resolution toward the end of the book I thought detracted from the bulld-up to the climax, the massacre and its aftermath.





During the Kobauchery, I bought Boyden's Three Day Road as part of my Great War reading this year--just tossing that title out there for others with a GW reading plan!
Post your thoughts somewhere about any Boyden books you read. I've read them all and I'd love to discuss them a little.
