An echo In The bone
by: Diana Gabaldon
Finished: oct 09
I LOVE this series. This particular book was a little hard to get into, but once I did, I had a hard time putting it down. THEN, I had to go back and re-read the whole series. It was VERY enjoyable. Really good. If you haven't read these books, start with the first....Outlander.

Band of Brothers
by: Stephen E. Ambrose
Started: Jan 2010
Christopher recommenced this. He loved it. I thought it interesting, in a text book kind of way. I liked what I read, but I was in the middle of the Outlander series and I just couldn't make myself read this instead. It is still on my nightstand. I will read some more of it. WW2. Makes you appreciate what those men and women in the armed services do for us!

Heir To SevenWaters
by Juliet Marillier
So Good! 4th in the Series. First is Daughter of the Forest.
Can't really describe it.
A tale of long ago. Family lives in the forest; there are fair folk, strong family bonds, love, long heritage. Fantasy. Great story.
