What Members Thought
I'm still not entirely sure if I read this book in college...it felt vaguely familiar. Regardless, the book has a pervasive sweetness to it that makes today's novels seem hopelessly jaded. The main character, Margaret, suffers through a series of difficult circumstances with a courage and patience that could be called old-fashioned--and quite wonderful. She's an interesting mix of dutiful daughter and independent spirit.
