The Second Diary of Abigail Jane Stewart

Cannons at Dawn

Jeni Enjaian

I found this book to be an average read on all fronts. I suppose that I might have engaged more in the book had it been less than six or seven years since I last read the first book. I have no memories of that first book so the events of this book formed a completely separate narrative with frequent references to the events of the previous book.
Although many of the "Dear America" series engage readers using the diary format, this book felt flat, its protagonist rote and uninteresting. The relative good health and fortune of all the primary characters, most of whom faced battle and death from the many dangers of revolutionary life. 

Although not a terrible book, I cannot recommend it.
