My Thoughts
A hauntingly Beautiful story that will capture your heart and won’t let go!
1940s Ireland, not a good place to be a little different, to have a special gift… this was a well told tale that transported me to the past and to Ireland… it really brought to life how different things were in the 40s in Ireland in particular… this book was so authentic including the vernacular that it did take a while to get used to, but I ultimately truly appreciated….
Molly was such a sweet girl and she grew to be such a strong woman… my heart broke for her so many times… how cruel can people be, and how much can one girl take? Molly’s pain and wisdom popped off these pages completely enveloping me in the story… Sharon Thompson has her own special gift when it comes to storytelling….
An exquisitely told story that will tug at your heart strings and won’t let go! Recommend!
