No words can explain

I'm 14 and I love historical Fiction! This book was so amazing I can't even start to explain how it made me feel when i was reading it. I liked it so much I cried when i was finished it. I know that sounds silly but that's how i felt. Mary had such a twisted life. In class right about the time i finished this book we started studying The Ukrainian immigrants comming to Canada and we had to do a huge project on it and this book help me so much because of how well it explained the boat ride and the life once she got there. It's a truley amazing story.my other fav books are:Gwen's story Tuck everlastingThe tillerman series (Homecoming, Dicey's song etc.)you should read them :)
