4.2 AVERAGE


I listened to this book and what a joyous experience. My journey into the world of the fictional town of Faha in 1950’s Ireland was a balm to my soul. Superb writing with colorful characters and stories of friendship and lost loves. Also a dear coming of age story for protagonist Noe. I’m ready for someone to buy the tv or movie rights as this would be heartwarming on the screen.

Hard to give this stars cause I know I’d like it another time. Very Ruby material. But the pace was just too slow for what I wanted right now. Would maybe try it again in chq
