4.0 out of 5 stars A real bedside companion, 6 Aug 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Finishing Becca: A Story about Peggy Shippen and Benedict Arnold (American Colonies Series) (Paperback)
Ann Rinaldi is my favorite Author of all time. I have read many of her books. This particular one was very good. It is not my favorite of hers but it showed that once again the talented Author Ann Ranaldi can mix fact with fiction and come out with a powerful entertaining novel for young adults. I don't know how she does it but she really gets people interested in history just by them reading a few pages from one of her many delightful books. This author truly deserves an award for her magnificent literature.

5.0 out of 5 stars A fabulous read with wonderful, distinct characters, 17 Jun 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Finishing Becca: A Story about Peggy Shippen and Benedict Arnold (American Colonies Series) (Paperback)
I loved Finishing Becca. Ms. Rinaldi painted a wonderful illusion of the colonial times, and very realistic characters. You could understand the emotions of Becca, and couldn't help but hating some of the other vivid characters that Rinaldi colorfully illustrated in her book. An excellent storyline that is easy to follow, but makes you think. You can't put it down. A great read for anyone from young teens to adults. Rinaldi wonderfully intertwines history with fictional characters. A must-read!

5.0 out of 5 stars Finishing Becca: A True Bedside Companion, 1 May 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Finishing Becca: A Story about Peggy Shippen and Benedict Arnold (American Colonies Series) (Hardcover)
Rinaldi has really done it again in this beautiful retelling of the story of Peggy Shippen and Benedict Arnold. The story's charecters are portrayed in a vivid, believable form and the story is moving, well-written and historically correct.

I believe this is one of Rinaldi's weakest story ever! The lack of fluency made this book hard to read. Read more
