The Widow by Carla Neggars

Another mystery that really had me going until the end. I love it when you read something and you think you figure it out and there is a twist or another layer added. Then you have to re-think everything. That happened to me a few times as I went through this. One thing that did draw me to the book was it taking place on Mt. Desert Island. I could see the places that were being talked about and described. I was really feeling a part of the book. Neggars is a good writer that makes the words flow and has not left me dissatisfied at all. I am looking forward to reading some more of her work.

Ireland by Frank Delaney

A very long book. There were times that I did not think I was going to make it through. At the same time it was enjoyable and I am glad that I stuck it out. It follows a boy and his quest to find the 'Storyteller'. In between him watching him grow up and the emotional growth there are many stories about Ireland history. The stories are very rich and descriptive. I can picture some of them even as I sit here and write this. It was very well written and if you like history with a little myth throw in you will enjoy this book.
