Carolyn B. (Aiken, SC)

Confusing
I had a difficult time following this book. I had to keep looking backwards to check date or to reread a section because I was lost. There was not enough explanation for some of the Indian folklore. Is this truly happening, or is this part of Anna's nightmares?

Too Much, Too Long
Story was OK but got bored by the middle of the book. Had to push myself to finish and did skim through many sections. I found the book wordy, description intense, confusing characters and did not appreciate the vulgar language. The suspense dragged on & on, just not my preferred mystery style.

Sisters of the Lost Nation
While the originality and premise of the book is good, the author looses me in the writing time line details. The chapter headings were confusing (days and times), and also made the book somewhat disjointed. I also found it difficult to try to ascertain who was alive, missing or dead in each chapter. Individual character development was spotty at best. I really wanted to know more about the characters and their places and interactions within their tribal culture.I did not finish the book as I considered it not a good use of my time.

Barry E. (Boynton Beach, FL)

Very Hard to follow
Definitely a moving story, but it will take some perseverance to get thru this. I felt it was difficult to follow the story from day to day, too much going back then forward, could not always figure out what time zone I was in. In my opinion this book needs some heavy editing before being published.

Did not finish
I cannot write an adequate review of this book, because I could not finish it. It was not good. It was poorly written and seemed rather juvenile
