Review
SALLY is an enjoyable read. I wish that, as Sally was portrayed to be intelligent and ahead of her time, she would not have fallen so hard for such a man as the author has made Thomas Jefferson out to be. But the ending, while leaving things somewhat ambiguous, leads the reader to draw the likely conclusion of what happened upon the return to Monticello. 3 Stars
