Set in Colorado Territory, Mattie Spencer records newlywed life in her journal. Paired with a rigid but respected young man who needs a strong wife, Mattie is often left to fend for herself. The book drags on with hardship after hardship, I almost gave up on it. At the very end...events unfold and come to somewhat of an ending. Interesting read overall to get a feel for the life of a young pioneer family, but fairly bland reading.
