Betsey Brown

Well, let's begin by saying that so far it's rather... odd. The grammar annoys me a lot, and it annoys me with how much they don't say words correctly. I find it hard to read books like this, just because I get rather mad at the fact that the writer decided they wouldn't have characters pronounce correctly. It makes the book troublesome to read, and on some rare occasions it makes it so the reader doesn't know what someone is trying to say. I would somewhat understand it if the story was told from first person point of view, but it would still annoy me. But from third person point of view? So far I predict that I will not enjoy this book nearly as much as the others we've had to read for this class, and I'm doubting that I'll like it at all. Hopefully it's not as bad as  The Poisonwood Bible or A Farewell To Arms or a book by Bukowski.
