Book Reviews of The River Queen
Book Review: River Queen Opinion
Summary: 3 Stars
This book is all about the trials and realizations of a mother whose family is gone and she has nothing to do now. I actually enjoyed this book because it showed a different side to the world. A much more mellow, and "go-with-the-flow" kind of feeling. The traveling crew on the boat didn't have any plans, and just went with what happened. It was nice to be able to read and experience something different like that in a book.
I would like to read another writing by Mary Morris sometime in the future because she has a flow, and graceful way of writing that makes you feel like you're in the book. That you're on the boat looking out on the Mississippi horizon, in this case. It was a very perspective book to realize how crazy your own life is, and to be able to kick back and relax and live someone else's life for a few moments.
