Stijn Hens stijnhens — I enjoy reading Debbie Macomber because she is such an easy read. Her books take some of the same turns, but there is usually something in the book that you don't see coming. This book followed those lines. A good read and one I enjoyed reading in the car on my way to spring break.

Sally Edgar _ally_dgar — I haven’t heard anything about Belfast, Northern Ireland for a long time. Up until 1998, it was pretty much a war zone. I remember news stories about terrorist bombings and gun battles in the streets. When I was growing up, terrorism was synonymous with the IRA, not radical Islam. So what’s been happening in Belfast since peace was declared? According to this novel, the former terrorists are running the government. And, they’re still a bunch of thugs. Gerry Fegan is a former IRA assassin and currently a drunk. He’s being followed by 12 ghosts who want vengeance on those responsible for their deaths. Each ghosts, or group of ghosts, point out the person they want vengeance on and Fegan kills them after figuring out how that person was responsible for the person’s death. The whole time he’s doing this, I kept thinking that at some point he was going to have to kill himself because he’s the one who actually killed all twelve of those victims. I’m not going to say how that quandary was resolved, but I thought it was a bit of a cheat. While Ghosts of Belfast isn’t the type of book I normally read, it was a very good look at the mind of a killer. I was never quite sure whether the ghosts were real or whether they were just manifestations of Fegan’s guilt and insanity. Even when the story closed, I wasn’t sure.

Jv Dagaang jvdagaang — I thought this was one of the best books I've read in a long time. I found myself looking up Vermeer's paintings to match them up with the story. I learned alot about the time period and art by reading this book. It was an entertaining story, and that is why I read historical fiction (I think some of the other reviews take themselves too seriously; its fiction -- enjoy it!). The movie is well done, but does not do the book justice. The scenes are very artistically put together, which makes it worth seeing. But, the characters and story line in the movie are much more shallow than in the book.
