Looks great -- I will search it out in my bookstore travels. I'm a sucker for anything set in Ireland, and throw in a few orphans, and I'm set! Thanks! Hope you are enjoying the podcast :) Suzanne, I’ve heard of it, but only the title and author — never looked into what it was about. Looks great — I will search it out in my bookstore travels.

Thanks! Hope you are enjoying the podcast :)

Ann, I was wondering if you have read The Secret Scripture by Sebastian Barry. The main character, Roseanne, is an orphan and her doctor, Dr.Grene, can probably be described as an orphan as well (at least that's how I'm seeing it after only about 100 pages in to the book). Roseanne is writing her life story at the age of (she believes) 100 and so far it is a wonderful story. Oh, and it's also set in Ireland so I think that you will like it if you haven't already picked it up.

I have a HUGE collection of Christmas books, and will be adding "The Man Who Invented Christmas" to it, as well as buying it for a few friends. Can't wait to see the list beginning on 11/16. I would add "The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society" for ANYONE who loves books & reading - it will be my Christmas gift to many friends this year. Thanks for your always-good suggestions!
