Lady of Milkweed Manor (Julie Klassen)

Why I have this book: I borrowed it from the ebook library because I enjoy this author's books.

This is Julie Klassen's first published book. She has improved as a writer a lot in the years since, but it was still an enjoyable read. I felt like the story was kind of predictable (and not always believable), and there could have been more depth of emotion in some pretty traumatic events, but all-in-all, it wasn't bad.

It was interesting to learn about "foundling" hospitals and wet nurses from that era. I'm so glad I live now.

Clean for the most part, although the main character has a baby out of wedlock and how that happened is very mildly described.
