If I look past my friends' reviews I see more than I care to! :S <br /><br /><br />Seeing the amazon reviewer recommend this to fans of Rudyard Kipling turns me off a bit, but I'll have to add this to my list since you liked it so much! ;)Bluerosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00680170638396181756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31647067.post-49535382256665095352015-04-25T20:59:37.730-07:002015-04-25T20:59:37.730-07:00@Shonya - I AM on Goodreads but I've never rea...@Shonya - I AM on Goodreads but I've never really figured it out. Every so often I'll look at it for a review IF I can't find any information about a book elsewhere. Maybe someone on Goodreads will drop a hint of the history of a book or something. That's typically when I check it out.Carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08772667430500306088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31647067.post-47088263882833679672015-04-25T19:11:35.228-07:002015-04-25T19:11:35.228-07:00Interesting. . .I had never heard of it, but your ...Interesting. . .I had never heard of it, but your comments about it being a good story that makes you think. . .well, that's right up my alley!<br /><br />And are you on Goodreads, or do you just check it out (as a non-member) for reviews?Shonyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04310547848215492736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31647067.post-79291533283891489652015-04-25T06:46:18.072-07:002015-04-25T06:46:18.072-07:00I have not read the book (yet), but the movie with...I have not read the book (yet), but the movie with Heath Ledger in it is actually quite good in my opinion. Of course, it might take great liberties with the book (I couldn't comment on that yet), but it does tell a story of courage, bravery, and honor regained through very difficult and desperate circumstances.<br /><br />Ethne is one of my favorite names! If we had another daughter, she would be most likely be named Ethne! Apparently the correct Irish pronunciation is Enya (like the singer), but I prefer to pronounce it more phonetically with a short e first and a long e at the end.Heather VanTimmerenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05814478239699334086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31647067.post-37283403528386690842015-04-24T14:16:50.489-07:002015-04-24T14:16:50.489-07:00I had never heard of the book or the author, but I...I had never heard of the book or the author, but I ordered it on the Kindle. Odd that there is only one review of it on Amazon.
