Good so far!

"As a lover of historical fiction, I knew this was going to be right up my alley from the start. I think your biggest strength is your characters. They all feel well-realized, and their interactions with one another are fantastic, which is hard to do with family systems and have it come across as authentic, and you nailed that. I liked the style too, I think you could have perhaps slowed down a little in places and really let us get enveloped in the landscape and setting of the story. I can tell you're familiar with Dakota territory, but to someone who's never been, what does it feel like? How cold is it, even before the blizzard? You do a great job with the little house they're in, but what about everything around it outside? That sort of thing. It's still really good, but I think that extra little bit of detail will bring things to the next level for you. But I didn't notice any grammar mishaps as far as I could tell. Overall, I had a lot of fun reading through this, and I'm excited to see what happens next! Really great job :) "
