Alessandro Pegoraro mail395b — It's October, 1609. Although her best friend Jessie Bolton has returned to England with her grieving father following her mother's death, nine-year-old Elizabeth Barker is hopeful. The small colony of Jamestown, Virginia, is finally beginning to feel like home. The birth of Lizzie's baby sister, Abigail, has brought the Barker family joy. And Lizzie's twin brother, Caleb, will join the family come spring. But nothing can prepare Lizzie, her family, and the other colonies for the hardships they will face over winter. There isn't nearly enough food to last until the next ship arrives in the spring, and as soon as the first snow falls, disease once again breaks out among the colonists. Lizzie fears for her life, for her parent's lives, but especially for the life of little Abigail, whom Lizzie fears may not be strong enough to survive the winter. Lizzie and her new friend Mary cling to each other for comfort and pray for deliverance, yet even their strong spirits may not be enough to keep their families alive. As Lizzie struggles through the death of friends and loved ones, family and strangers, and starvation and sickness, she fights to keep her hope alive and to never give up. Told through Lizzie's spirited diary entries, this book continues the story begun in Our Strange New Land. Both that book and this one reveal what life might have been like for a young girl during the difficult winter of 1609-1610 in Jamestown Colony. I highly reccomend this book to all fans of the Dear America and My America series, especially those that loved the first book about Lizzie.

Tariq Shahrour shahroor — First off, I would like to say that I enjoyed this book. That said, it uses, like, every dystopia cliche currently in existence. It's a testimony to the author's skill that she can still make the book interesting and fresh despite that, but the cliche level is what kept this book from being a four or maybe even a five. I wish that instead of a hypothetical dystopia it was an alien or alternate world entirely. Then the faction setup would have been more believable. This book was a light, quick, engaging read, but it's no Hunger Games. For more dystopia meets romance with overtones of societal control, read: Matched Delirium Or if you can take it, graduate to Brave New World -- an oldie, but still one of the best dystopias out there.
