Lost Roses

Might be just under 4 stars.
I did not enjoy this book as much as I enjoyed Lilac Girls, but it was still a good read.

It is a bit slowed paced at the beginning, despite extreme happenings- it just lags a bit until the author starts to move time more quickly. There were some actions by the characters that I found just a little incongruent. Overall, it's an interesting story though and I appreciate it being based on reality and the research the author did to make it come alive.

I also really wondered how one single skinny horse managed to pull a cart across countries?
