The Messenger - Siri Mitchell

I picked this one up for free and held off reading it for quite a while.  This isn't my first read from this author, I have read She Walks in Beauty in the past, but I can't really remember the story even after reading the synopsis on amazon.  It's still in my library, so I couldn't have disliked it.

Hannah is a Quaker that is trying hard to hold up her end of the 'not taking sides' part of her religion.  Her brother, who abandoned his impartiality, has been arrested and sent to prison.  Jeremiah runs a tavern and is part of a spy ring.

I didn't make it far into this one.  Only about 8%.  The chapters bounce back and forth between Hannah and Jeremiah.  This is set in the colonial period, which I am discovering, is not my favorite setting.  There was just something about this book that I didn't like.

Nothing against this author, it was a learning experience for me as I will avoid books in this time period from now on.  I've tried to read a few now and I'm not sure that I've finished any lately.  I certainly don't think that I've enjoyed them much.
