Millie Plume Choisit Son Destin (2014) - Plot & Excerpts
I'm reviewing the books in this series on my blog, recommending them especially for young readers who read beyond age peers, loving an adventure story about young girls, with good parts about families and relationships included. Listening to one's dreams is a consistent theme along with never settling for what others want for you. The setting at the end of the 19th century places quite narrow expectations for girls and Hetty pushes against them often. WHATERMERGERRRRRD WHY WHY WHYthis book... Well, it was very cleverly written, I can tell you that. I liked the characters and the language. It had particularlily good imagery and heartfelt words. The only problem was Hetty.Y U SO STUPID????The ending was completely ridiculous. She ran away to join the circus and risked, lost and wasted everything. She broke Jem's heart for her own sake and because of Janet. Janet's love for jem was a passing fad. You know what happens when you like someone who loves someone else? You grit your teeth and stick it out till someone perfect comes along! Us girls have had to do that countless times and I don't think Jem will ever get over Hetty anyway. What a waste! Even canter wood crest had a better ending than that. Not one of Jacqueline's best works.
