Chapter One Hundred: Lincoln's Dreams

All of the books by Connie Willis that I own somewhere on the cover or front page describe her as "the author of Lincoln's Dreams," so when I saw Lincoln's Dreams while browsing through the public library one day, I figured I'd check it out.  Let me just say that it is a very weird story.  I finished reading it a week or so ago, and I still am not sure what I think of it, which is sort of unusual for me.  It definitely kept my interest while I was reading it--I had no idea what was going to happen next.  And as for the end, I was satisfied with it, even though it is a bit vague and fairly tragic.  It was a fascinating read, exploring the possible meaning of dreams and set against the backdrop of Civil War history, not a topic I normally find interesting but which worked well with this story.  Don't read it if you're looking for a happy story, though.
