"Our Only May Amelia" is a historical fiction novel set in the Pacific Northwest in the late 1890s.

Living in a Finnish-American community, May Amelia grapples with the challenges of her gender in a male-dominated world. She yearns for adventure and wrestles with her identity as she navigates family dynamics, friendships, and the struggles of growing up. As she faces the harsh realities of life, including loss and change, May Amelia discovers her own strength and resilience. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
