The author is a fan of John Irving and it shows - a oftentimes delightful book filled with rich characters. The story does a lot to illuminate how the gay community suffered throughout the decades of 1940s and onward in Ireland. Many of the plot points and twists and turns were a bit predictable and rote, but otherwise a good solid emotionally-fulfilling read.

Such an interesting book! I got a little bored once I got into the trade and consumers sections but the earlier parts of the book were loaded with very detailed explanations of fibers, history of textiles, and how it has impacted humanity.

Sarah's writing voice comes out in her character's personalities. This was my first book, and based on their actions, I was able to determine a lot about them. So many things going on - main focus being to solve a murder with her best friend EIllie.

Amazing book. Warning this book will rip your heart out.

This is my first graphic novel. While I liked the story about Raina's life as a teenager - so many things that adults and current middle schoolers can relate to - I would rather have read this book as a chapter book.

Another excellent read by Marian Keyes! A rags (ish) to riches (ish) tale involving amystery illness and trails of raising a family ... the characters are so well developed that I miss (someof) them!

The alphas are ready to kill!

Fun summer read. Brutally honest self biography of a world renowned Model, from childhood to present.An optimistic view of her life, through glamour and fame, heartbreak and failure.

When you enter this dystopian world you are quick to remember that life may be easier outside of this world. Everything is very regimented within this military world before you know it you are trying to shield your arms thinking you may also have special powers that are illegal.

Excellent book!!!!! Such a great read and an amazing twist!!!!
