The review of House of Eire is well written and I’d love to read the book. It was a bit difficult to understand the role of Ed and Sarah and to understand the genre from the review. On the other hand, it brought out the essence which is the family relationships. Thank you for sharing.

This sounds like a thrilling novel. I like how the ending wraps everything up. I wonder how many more sequel there will be? Anyway, thanks for the review.

It is good that this book stands alone despite being part of a series. The mystery and crime of this storyline is so thrilling that it has brought out a desire in me to read this book. Great Review.

A ghostwriter facing her unresolved ghosts... Interesting! I like what you said about children's character in books like these and I'm glad to know that the author made an effort to cultivate the character of Claire.

Thank you so much for an insightful review!

The story resonated well with my liking. I like Ireland, as a country, aesthetically speaking.

After reading the sample, I was quite curious to find out what was the shady deal Seamus had made with Dermot. That part got me interested in the book. Your review was engaging and well-written.

This book's mystery sounds intriguing. I'm curious how Hillary's family secrets will have consequences.

You say in the review the book can be read as a stand alone novel, do you feel this adds or takes away from the experience?
We've longed to see the roses, but never felt the thorns
And bought our pretty crowns, but never paid the price
Find me in the river, find me there
Find me on my knees with my soul laid bare
