EadieB @Butterflyamore I didn't read See What I Have Done but I did read The Borden Murders (3.74) by Sarah Miller (#litsyauthor) which was a 5 star read for me. I also read The Night Visitors (3.63) and gave it 4 stars.

abookishbutterfly @EadieB I haven‘t read any of those! 4y
abookishbutterfly @EadieB I added The Borden Murders to my list. I definitely prefer more historically accurate reads on the topic! 4y

EadieB @Butterflyamore That was an interesting thing to do. I‘ll have to check my Goodreads read list. I think the only book I read was A Separate Peace. I gave it 4 stars here‘s my review: 5y
EadieB A classic that young and old can relate to. Gene and Phineas attend a boarding school in New England during WWII and become friends. Gene betrays Phineas out of jealousy and rivalry. Years later Gene is still trying to forgive himself as he recognizes the evil of the dark side of adolescence and the consequences of his jealousy. Book teaches a lesson about how boys can become both rivals and intimate friends but need to be wary of each other. 5y
abookishbutterfly @EadieB So true! Great review! I am honestly surprised that it has such a low average rating. I‘ll need to read through some of the negative reviews at some point. I suspect that I‘ll get even more out of the book now then I did the first two times I read it so I‘m looking forward to a future reread. 5y
