Victory by Susan Cooper

Alternating chapters follow the connection between a homesick English girl living in present-day America and an eleven-year-old boy serving in the British Royal Navy in 1803, aboard the H.M.S. Victory, commanded by Admiral Horatio Nelson.

    This book is SO good, you can't stop reading. The ending is so surprising and fascinating. I like how the author wrote about two different eras. I give this book a 4 out of 5 because there were too many gruesome details.

    My head hurt when reading this. It was hard for me to concentrate on it, mainly because this genre isn't my favorite. [What is???] The two eras were interesting to read though.
