Book Reviews of The Night Journal
Book Review: A look into the past
Summary: 4 Stars
The Night Journal describes the rare opportunity for a member of the current generation to look at her family's past -- their personalities, the times they lived in and most of all their secrets. I was uncertain how I would like the book at first as the main character, Meg, is not really all that likeable. She's an angry young woman, cut off from her own feelings and still rebelling against her mother and grandmother. It wasn't really all that easy to like her grandmother, Bassie, either, but as secrets were revealed through Meg's great-grandmother Hannah's journals, I came to care about them all inspite of their faults. I liked it that everything wasn't fixed and perfect at the end of the story. It has a good, satisfying ending and not the happily ever after ending that would have been so tempting to write.
