LitPick Review
In Uncertain Glory, the main character is a 13 year-old boy named Joe Wood. Joe is a boy who owns his own newspaper printing shop during the Civil War. Charlie, Joe's best friend, helps him in the shop, but Joe is scared because if he doesn't pay back Mr. Allen, he will take all his printing machines back that he loaned Joe. Joe is really scared that he won't be able to pay his debt for them, so he works super hard. He also meets and becomes friends with a girl named Nell, and she can communicate with spirits. She uses her "miracle power" to communicate with someone very special to Joe.
Opinion:
I highly suggest this book to anyone who enjoys historical fiction. It took place during the Civil War and talks about how all of the people in the North had to contribute something. This book is so hard to stop reading. You tell yourself you are going to stop after this chapter, and then the chapter ends with a huge cliff hanger! So you read another chapter! Every time one problem concluded, a new one started. It has a lot of adventure and details. And it's easy to picture the characters and what is going on in the book. I really enjoyed this book!
