April 10, 2015—Was looking forward to reading this book for a while, since Maggie talked about it last year. I usually gobble up historical fiction, but I'm still plundering my way through this very tedious, heavy-handed book. The characters are predictable, tiresome, and very unlikable.
May 18, 2015—Finally finished cavorting with Peggy and Benedict Arnold, whose company I did not enjoy. Suffice it to say that I found the Epilogue and Notes on History and Sources more interesting than the story.
I wonder if Benedict Arnold ever wrote an autobiography. Or maybe I'll just stick to reading biographies of famous people rather than historically fictionalized accounts of their lives.
