M.C Higgins not so good
Alot of people said M.C Higgins the great book was good but i have to disagree it really had no thrilling plot it just wrote on and on about the mountains and how much he loved them. Later the author described the killburns as witches and they were evil and death romed there lands. but later in the book it made them seen as normal people so it's really controdicts itself but it's not like a revolation for the character it's just plain confusing in the end it got more interesting especially with the girl leaving and the mount rolling down the mountain. so over all i didn't really like the book and i wouldn't recomend it to people but there are plenty of other good books that amazon sells so maybe try another book.
