Death of a Smuggler

Found it difficult to follow all the different characters. Couldn’t keep my focus on the storyline too. The written “accents” of the characters was annoying. Did not capture my interest. Did not really enjoy this book.

Smile: A Graphic Novel
by Raina Telgemeier
View in Library Catalog
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.
Land
by Maggie O'Farrell
View in Library Catalog
This is the first novel I've read in a very long time that actually made my cry... twice! Set just after the "Great Hunger" (potato famine) in Ireland, we are introduced to a sprawling tale of a family both struggling and benefitting from their connection to the land. There is great loss faced in this tale, but also great tenacity and determination. The female characters are written as bold, more so than their male counterparts, which I enjoyed. O'Farrell truly succeeds at world-building and this is one of her best to date.
