The Posionwood Bible 45- 75

The first chapter starts off with Ruth May the youngest of the bunch.  She discuses the other children's bellies for a good page or two. Since malnutrition the children's bellies have expanded well sort of. Ruth May has a very curious way of looking at things. Adah the twin that is supposedly smart but crippled her reading list in her chapter. She read books such as The Pilgrims Progress and Paradise lost. She loves reading and her mom took notice of that so she has a large variety of books to look at. Okay now Leah. Leah happens to be one of my favorite of all the characters. She admires her father although to me he seems to be kind of a jerk. He acts like he has good intentions but he's really cruel to the children's mother and the villagers. Adah later mentions more about her books...out of all the characters Adah seems to be the one watching it all unfold if you know what I mean. She may be boring at times but she has a lot of interesting views and you can find out a lot about the family in her chapters.

Good read. Like that the story is told through several perspectives. Right now I'm enjoying Leah's story most of all.
