My Thoughts

There Is a Season is book number three in the Shenandoah Valley Saga. I personally had not read the previous two books in the series. While it seemed fine as a standalone, I do believe that perhaps I would have connected better with the story and the characters had I had the full background given in the previous books. That said, Civil War stories are also not my most preferred either, so that certainly could have played a part in my connection as well.

Regardless, one thing that was very clear to me is that this was a book that was well researched. There was much detail given to draw readers back to this time and place. This is something that I always appreciate in a good historical fiction novel. I am far from an expert on this particular subject in history so I can't speak to the historical accuracy as well as a history buff would, but it certainly felt authentic to me anyway!

Overall, it was a well written and unique story that fans of Civil War fiction are sure to want to check out.
