A review by xandra_lyn
A Dance in Donegal by Jennifer Deibel

Did not finish book. Stopped at 10%.
I was 10% in and there was already anti-catholicism and a guy assaulted her. I don't *think* she was raped, but she got knocked out as she was running, which is a) really hard to do and b) incredibly vulnerable, and the author just....doesn't touch on it. 

It's also a Christian book, and so full of "and then this specific Bible verse came to her mind and she felt peace." And like...ok, maybe for some people that works, but in my experience that's misleading at best and disillusioning at worst for those who don't hear from God in that manner.
