Book Reviews of Winter Study (Anna Pigeon)
Book Review: A cold cold book
Summary: 3 Stars
I have read a number of the Anna Pigeon books. Alas, as the series goes on, I am liking Anna less & less.
"Winter Study" is a very interesting book. The reader learns much about the habits of the wild animals who live in extreme climates. Facts about humans not only living in but surviving very cold weather make the book live up to its title, "Winter STUDY." The best part of the book, to me, is the ability of the author to make the reader actually feel the cold that permeates the whole of the tale.
While I did enjoy reading the book, I became increasingly annoyed at Anna's preaching; she does not like the government, Homeland Security or Catholics. The anti-christ statement was positively offensive. Enough! Anna suffers from bone confusion by breaking then spraining various misnamed bones. (Oh editor - where are you?)
Finally, I found strange word usage, odd sentence and paragraph structure and the use of words such as "Anna'd" very distracting.
