What a delightful surprise to find this book in my mail box today!!! I am very excited about reading this one, and even though my TBR pile has grown to monsterous proportions, this one is going near the top of the stack!! Thank you so much...it feels just like Christmas! You are such a sweetie!!

Finally got this book read and found it very interesting. I have often read about the potato famines in Ireland, but this was written from a different perspective than any I have read before. Great characters!
