      3.5 starsFirst of all I’m going to say that Come Again No More is a book I would usually never pick up myself. I usually only read YA books because that’s what I enjoy, though I’d like to thanks GoodReads because I won this ARC from them.With that said Come Again No More wasn’t really my cup of tea, though I did find that reading the story helped me understand a lot about the years of the Great Depression. This book features Eli Paint and his family and their struggles through this tough time in live and how they come together to help each other. It’s a story of gain and loss, discovering and losing, love and hate, family and friends. It shows just how hard people had to fight to make a living back then. People were poor, going broke and had to struggle to made a living. It’s a very touch story.Though, something in this book that made me skip over some passages was the cussing and language used. I can understand people cussing when they are angry but there were times where I couldn’t even imagine hearing someone talking like that.This book is the second in the Paint Family series, but I didn’t read the first one and it was easy to follow along the plotline of the story. The book was kind of slow for me at some points but there were exciting parts too. I’m positive that a person of great interest of the time era the book took place and a person who loves to read a story about a good family orientated book with really enjoy the the Paint’s story.
