![]() ![]() ![]() The inner story (the Cherokee Nation and a ghost story) was occasionally genuinely creepy, although I did figure out the mystery, such as it was, a little too soon. BUT- the character who comes through when she's actually at the Seminary is much more nuanced and interesting, and it's a little difficult to reconcile both sides of her. ![]() The outer story (Willie doesn't want to go home to the farm, misses her dead papa whom she worshipped, steals a classmate's teaching certificate and accepts a job in Indian Territory) is where the magic never happened, mostly because Willie is a spoiled bitch. There were two stories here- three if you count the inevitable romance as its own arc- and I think either tale might have worked, but together they made the pacing all kinds of uneven and played off each other badly. ![]()
