I was inspired by a recent post by the Paperback Bookworm. As easily the most avid reader of my blog, I took my own St. Patrick’s Day advice and read a Maeve Binchy book for the first time since probably 2002. I chose her novel Echoes based on a quick overview of the plot and the fact that it was $7 less than the other Binchy contender I considered on barnesandnoble.com Don’t judge the Bookworm.
Echoes is everything I love about Binchy’s books. I love her character development and sweet stories. I love that in my head I can hear the Irish accent, but there are no annoying spellings of “favourite.” I want to comment on the ending, but that could alienate my dear readers.
A great read that I can’t lend to anybody since I read it on the Nook iPad app (sorry Most Frequent Reader, Mom).
