I finished a book today which I can only recommend to all lovers of Irish Fairy Tales.

The Daughter of the Forrest
by Juliette Marillier


I began that book this morning and just finished it. I cried & I laughed reading it (mostly cried tho).

The young Sorcha has to witness how her 6 older brothers are enchanted by her stepmother. She has to search for a way to bring her brothers back into human form.
She has to fulfil a difficult task that brings a lot of sorrow and pain to her before her brothers can be released from the spell.


I hope you will like it as much as I did. This will certainly be one of my favourite books from now on and it found it's way to the small pile of books that I will take with me to Scotland.

Thanks for the recommendation Aon. I am looking for a good book for my summer vacation since I am spending it at home! :)

When are you going to Scotland?

Aon,  I'll be sure and try to find that book, it sounds like something I would like.  I'm real weepy anyway.  If my hubby and I are watching  a sad show on tv, he doesn't say a word, just gets out his hanky and hands it to me!  ::bluecry

To Mac5: I'm going to Scotland in August or September. It depends on how fast I'll find a place to stay and a job over there.
I hope I'll go over in August because then me and Craig will be going to camp in the Highlands! Just we two, the Highlands, a tent and sheep :D That will be fun!

To Maggie: You are glad that you found someone who doesn't lose a word to that... *sighs* my brother always laughs at me  ::confused  (although he is quite weepy himself!;). :)

I don't try to hide it.  Even though Hubbie gets a good laugh.  I've known him to sniff every now and again.  Akferret will cry with me if she sees me cry.  Funny girl.  :D

I watch one soap opera every day and that is General Hospital. One of the characters died or they thought she was dead,but she turned up at her own funeral.  Anyway , everbody was going into the church to celebrate Carly's life and the song was playing, Say Good-Night Not Good by and of course I was crying like someone I knew had died (cry) and about that time my daughter called and she thought something bad had happened.  When I told her what was going on she had a good laugh!  ::funny

maggiemahone1 who (cry)'s over soap opera characters!!

there is no use in trying to hide it... it is quite obviously when I'm sitting there and sniff loudly.
I just can't hold it back.
I saw "ransom" in cinema and that film finished me off (psychologically). I sat in the train home and I was still crying like one of my family died. When I think about that I'm still embarrassed... all these people who thought that something really bad happened and I was still crying over that film...
