I gather not everyone enjoyed Mrs. Lincoln’s Dressmaker. Some mentioned that they did not care for all the historical detail. Did anyone dislike the book because Mary Lincoln was hard to like/empathize with? Do you think this happens often i.e. a book or author are dismissed because of unlikeable characters?
