Summary: The First In A Promising New Series
Comment: The Civil War changed 14-year-old Emma Simpson's life forever. The civil war tears her family apart as it also tears apart her beloved country. Day by day life becomes more dreary as the deaths in her family pile up. When her brother's body shows up at the doorstop she learns of his tragic death and can't shut out the inevitable feel and sight of death that has taken over her town since the war began. The only thing she can hope for is that the Lord would not take anymore of her family members away. However things don't go her way. Her mother is sick as well, and her only friend is slowing going mad with all the casulaties and deaths caused by the war. I find that the title When Will This Cruel War Be Over is the best way to describe Emma's feeling as the days drag with the stench of death in her town. The book in many ways was very depressing but the hope in Emma is one of the very lone bight stars in the book. This first book in the Dear America series starts a very promising series. I recommend all book who like fiction to read it!

Summary: A MUST READ BOOK!
Comment: I read a book en-titled, When Will This Cruel War Be Over? A diary of Emma Simpson. This is a very good book. You learn alot of interesting facts about the Civil War.It is about a girl named Emma Simpson and her and her family get attacked by the Yankees. They have to move all of their stuff up to the top floor. When the Yankees invade their house, they eat all of their food, take all of their stuff and burn and ruin all of their furniture. I like how the author has most of his characters have a dialect, each character has his or hers own personality. This book is an A+, 100%book! You must read this book.
