I haven't read your first two yet, Lorna, but I read Abundance by Sena Jeter Naslund sometime in the early 2000s because that time period interests me. Looking forward to what you pick next!

Lorna | 22 comments Thank you, Jennifer. They have all been wonderful books, so it was easy to get through these "tomes." I am not sure what will be next but it seems there are many tomes in my library. :)

Thank you, Melissa. This was the sequel to The Princes of Ireland, the two books being The Dublin Saga. They were both powerful books with a lot of history from the beginnings of Ireland and throughout its tumultuous history. I loved both books.
