"This is a story of the lives of the people who live in a small town in Ireland. There are no real main characters, because everyone in this book is somehow tied to another. It was a hard book to review, but a defiante good read. The writing style for this book is a bit different, but it is guaranteed to pull at your heart strings. It will make you laugh, cry, and cheer at the end."
