Ugh, I just didn't like the whole Civil War arc. Though, I always like when Rogue makes an appearance in Carol Danver's books. I hated that Carol was on Tony's side during Civil War, woof. I was just glad when this clusterff- was over with.

Ever wonder what it would like to be a part of civil war or at the beginning of it. I have been interested in my own country’s battles and the war over slavery. That would be the Civil War that takes place in my America history.
I was have been born in the northern part of the civil war. Making me not have slaves. I would not be a slave owner. To me that owing other human beings is something which never happened. I am not one that ignore the fact that it happen though.
I would have let slaves be humans but that me. I know about my civil war in my American history. Genteel Secrets is about a woman that is forced to be a confederacy spy. It tell as story of someone that is against slavery but is born in the south and raised with slaves. It also tell the story of a Pinkerton detective.
The author does a good job portray what Washington and what some folk trying to help the south and some important events and people with helping the South win the Civil war. They seem to be against the government and Lincoln.
Will a northerner and Southern belle be able to survive and live a happy life? You will need to read to find out. If you are into American history this is also a good book to tell about south culture and a bit of the beginning of the Civil War.

Erika (17788 KP) rated Captain Marvel, Vol. 2: Civil War II in Books
Feb 19, 2018 (Updated Feb 19, 2018)
I should have known to stay away from anything associated with Civil War II. I absolutely despised the first Civil War, and the second was worse. During Civil War II, Captain Marvel is against Iron Man (which is perfectly fine in my book), but it was just an awful story-line. It was boring, predictable, and I'll never get the time I took to read this back. I didn't like what they did to Carol. Everything I've liked about Carol/Captain Marvel up to this point seems to be gone. Woof. The framing of her was weak. Though, at least I don't have to endure her on again, off again relationship with her beau, since (spoiler) died in one of the issues.

A sequel that didn't stink
Of course the first one was original This one didn't ruin it at all and I love the idea of involving the president and my favorite historical era the civil war.
