    Genre: Historical Fiction

    If you like Ireland, books set in the past or mystery in your read, then this is your book. It's mysterious, adventurous and it has a good bit of culture in there. Personally, I found it a difficult book to read, it wasn't really my genre. However, not to say that you shouldn't give it a read.

    Genre: Science Fiction

    This book has a wonderful opening that makes you want to read on. Sadly, however, I did have issues with the story as it progresses. If you like Sci-Fi, a little romance and aliens (war of the worlds, creepy kind) then you will enjoy this book immensely. If you like kick-ass, strong characters,...
