Title: The Bluebird and the Sparrow
Author: Janette Oke
Genre: Christian Historical fiction
Plot: Stern and serious Berta has always been envious of her pretty and likeable sister Glenna. Berta's bitterness has left her feeling unloved and without joy.

What I liked about this book:
It showed how allowing just a little bit of resentment to take over can affect your life- and those around you- forever.
Glenna and Berta were well thought out characters that made the story easy to relate to.
What I didn't like about this book:
It could be a little dry at times.
My rating : 2 . 5
Aw, I remember reading this one. At the time I really enjoyed it, though I suspect if I read it now, I'd have many of the same thoughts as you. :)
