Boston Jane: An Adventure Audiobook

" Completely unrealistic, but at the same time very good. I liked how the main character grew through hardship, and how the author included a lot of historical details. It's probably the pregnancy hormones, but I cried a lot in this book! "

" I just finished the first book in this series and what a cute, fun book! I'm excited to read the others. I love the main character and narrator Jane, she reminded me a little of Anne Shirley. Thanks for the recommendation Angie-loved it! "

" I totally read through this book very quickly, and am planning to read the other two books in the trilogy. It is not only a good historical read, based on historical records, but it is a book to draw you into the character. "

" Very enjoyable, young adult historical fiction. "

" Yet another five-star book from Jennifer Holm. I only wish she didn't beat her main characters up so much! "

" Wanted to read this since we'd been to the location of the story. But it wasn't worth continuing to read the series. "

" haha, I loved this trilogy when I was in middle school... "

" An interesting/accurately disgusting young adult book about settlers on the American Pacific North West. I believe this is one of a series, but it wasn't interesting enough for me to read any of the other books. "

" I already read it once when I was in school. and it was great!!!!! if you like a little history, with some small romance, and good adventure then you will love this! "

" For 10 yrs +. I sped through this book so fast and couldn't wait to get the sequel. A very fun YA historical novel. Some things do not come across terribly realistic, but for the most part it is. :) "

" This book was kind of annoying, Jane trying to be a ladyand all, Imean,no dancing, that was supposed to be a requirement. And no talking, GAH. Oh well, it was a pretty good bookanyways. "

" This was such a fun book-definitely I would recommend to anyone. Jennifer Holm crafted a great story with a believable heroine that faces challenges and the paradox created by her very proper education at a ladies academy. "

" This one was definitely my favorite out of the three. "

" i loved this book i like how jane finds who she is and who she loves "

" Begins with some classic bullying that hooks student readers, then delves into a westward expansion theme that deals with all kinds of issues. Love the cultural misunderstandings & depth Holm weaves in. Well done! "

" I also read this over the summer thanks to my mom. It was really fun to read, but there were some weird parts.. Over all, I liked it. "

" Using the advice of miss hepplewhite's favorite text, a book about etiquette for young ladies, Jane successfully copes with the hardscrabble life of the Washington State frontier. If you are looking for a spunky heroine, Jane's your gal. "

" I really enjoyed the entire trilogy. Fun, easy reads! "

" Jane has to learn some hard lessons about life. "

" This is a really good book. Not confusing and very emotional. Boston Jane is about a girl that travels to the frontier to marry. "

" Love the Boston Jane trilogy. Have read this series at least three times. Recommended it to some 6th grade girls in my library and they just didn't appreciate it. But hey, with age comes wisdom. A great historical fiction read. "

" Not great in my view, but good writing, a character you care about even if you can't always admire her choices, and realistic growth through contrived circumstances. I will keep this book around for the adventure aspect, the geography, history, and the consequences of poorly thought out choices. "

" With every chapter I always got surprised. The classes, the voyage, betrayal, a love triangle, and death? Well, I certainly wasn't expecting that. "

" This book (the first of three) is for tweens/teens, but I enjoyed reading it. The historical context is rich and interesting, the characters are great and the writing is quite engaging, often funny. I ended up reading all three books. "

" loved all the books you have written! "

" The start of a very sweet series of books that are great for fans of the Pacific Northwest "

" How can you not like a story about a young lady shedding her finishing school decorum? "

" I already read it once when I was in school. and it was great!!!!! if you like a little history, with some small romance, and good adventure then you will love this! "

" Wish this story had been around when I was a girl. How great to find out that it is a series! Tomboy Jane is humiliated into behaving like a "lady", only to find out the hard way that it is her tomboy skills that are most valuable. "

" Not the best book ever, but a light fun read. Enjoyed it. "

" With every chapter I always got surprised. The classes, the voyage, betrayal, a love triangle, and death? Well, I certainly wasn't expecting that. "

" I found this book on the monthly feature shelf. (It was spotlighting books set in Washington.) Looked fun, so I gave it a try. I loved it! It's clean and entertaining. Elements were slightly predictable, but I can't wait to read the next one! "

" A delightful piece of young adult historical fiction. The story of a girl who tries to be something she's not and in the end discovers it's enough to be herself. A great read! "

" This is a wonderful great book!!!!!!!!! I love it!!! "

" I more than throughly enjoyed this book. It was a fun realistic adventure that I could not put down. I highly recommend this book. hint: it's a series. "

" Really a cute book. Definitely written for a young adult audience, but sometimes those are the best books! I'm excited to read the next book in the trilogy. "

" I see that it is part of a series; so maybe I'll check them out. Pioneer experiences. If I hadn't read SO MANY of this type since I was a young adult, or if I were still a young adult I may have rated it higher. "

" Very interesting book my daughter found, looking forward to reading books 2 and 3 "

" Definitely a book for youth. Predictable ending, but well written and worth reading. "

" This book started out a little slow but once it got going it was very good. I particularly liked the budding romance between Jehu (Scudder) and Jane (Peck). The background on the Pacific Northwest, Chinook Indians, and frontier life was interesting and believable. "
