"Evvy's Civil War" has been on my "to read list" for many years, and I greatly anticipated it. Sadly, it was not what I expected it to be. The premise behind it was grabbing, and the possibility of family secrets is always an interesting one, but the writing style used by Miriam Brenaman was very hidden.
