Ireland

March's book is Ireland by Frank Delaney. It's a fairly long book, so start reading! We will be meeting at my house in three short weeks.

The first story told by the storyteller in the book is about the Architect of Newgrange. I've been doing some research on the passage tomb and came across some amazing pictures. Click here. (There is a large gallery of images at the bottom of the page.)

I may post some other information about the book as I come across it. 

Enjoy!

The History of Love

I really had to push myself to get through this book! I know it just shows how dumb I really am..but I just kept getting so confused! I did finish it but I can't really say that I understand everything that happened!

It took a while, but...

I ended up liking The History of Love. If you're not very far into it yet... keep going! It took over 100 pages for me to start liking it, but after that I really did. So many similarities with Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close (which I liked much more, but got worse reviews). I remember being curious about History after I read Extremely Loud and figured out that they were married.

A couple articles that I read after finishing the book:
