A Journey to the New World: The Diary of Remember Patience Whipple, Mayflower, 1620
I liked this book. It was pretty okay, but there was just some flaws in the plot line that I found. So, here are the following things which is what I consider plot holes.1. Wording: A young girl like Mem wouldn't write words like didn't, wasn't, and can't. It's 1620, they didn't start using those words regularly until the early twentieth century, almost three hundred years AFTER the Mayflower landed in Plymouth. And because she's from holland, there should be more Dutch dialogue in her diary.2. Bad Writing: At the beginning of the book, there were entries about something about the dining hall and oh yeah. I despise John. Wouldn't she state that at the beginning of her entry?3. Character Development: The diary, most of the time, didn't seem like it was written by a young teenager, it seemed like it was written by an author. And they also seem to praise America a lot, when they would have had England as their hero. who else is confused by this?I know a lot of you would say I was bias, but really, you can stick to your review, and I'll stick to mine.PS: The first thanksgiving wasn't in America. It was celebrated in Europe centuries before. And the First thanksgiving in North America was on Baffin Island in Canada with Martin Frobishore in 1578, long before the pilgrims arrived.Sincerely,Regina Mary Smith
