“I thought overall this book was pretty good. Ginny recieved 13 letters from her aunt, who died from an illness, instructing her to go to Europe. The adventures she had to go on kept me very interested the whole time. I also that the people she met on her journey were very interesting. I would never have as much courage as Ginny to just go to a country alone without knowing what to expect. This book kept me interested the whole time and I would recommend it to anyone over the age of 12.”
