I emerged triumphant and enriched. Perhaps this is how a butterfly would feel after leaving its chrysalis. LOL!

It certainly was a unique experience. Anna, both the book and the character, taught me many new things.

It was an interesting, albeit challenging, way to learn about those times in Northern Ireland. Thanks for the kind words.unamilagra wrote: ↑23 Sep 2019, 19:15 I really like the sound of the historical elements of this book. I'm not much into stream of consciousness writing though, so I will skip it. Great review!

The book was a fascinating experience. Herron made me reflect on many things in my own life. Truly, humans are all different, but alike too in a lot of ways.ButterscotchCherrie wrote: ↑30 Sep 2019, 13:03 I grew up in the UK during the Troubles. I can see you learned a lot about the political and religious roots of the conflict. This sounds like a fascinatingly multilayered and complex work. I enjoyed your thorough and insightful review.

Thanks for reading and commenting. You are appreciated.Mbrooks2518 wrote: ↑03 Oct 2019, 10:39 I'm not a fan of romance, and I don't usually read historical fiction, so I don't think this book is for me. Great review, though!

I did learn much about the Ireland situation and then some. You will, too!T_stone wrote: ↑03 Oct 2019, 20:51 I've never heard about the war up until now. I had to go look it up. Romance isn't usually my thing but with the detailed aspects concerning Catholics and nationalists with the Protestants and loyalists in Ireland, I might just consider reading this one. Thanks for your recommendation.
