I really enjoy Kate Mosse's books, and I always devour them. This book is the start of the new series, and, of course, it takes place in Mosse's favorite area, Carcassonne.
Honestly, the mystery involving Minou was fairly easy to solve, at least for me. I enjoyed the characters and the writing overall.

Now, I just need to find a copy of The City of Tears, the second book in the series. Mosse's books are fairly hard to find here in the USA sometimes, so I'm on the hunt.

Book Favorite

"Alice Munro always gets to the thing inside me that knows, with certainty, that this is my one life. There is a penetrating sense of ultimate aloneness in her writing. And in just a sentence she can turn from the present to the future and then all the way into the past, making the reader feel as if they are experiencing the sweep of life as moments accumulate, and then double back and reconsider. It presents at first as just a drip drip drip… and then before you know it, you’re standing in a waterfall."

Great book :)
 This book really is about all aspects of the idea of forgiveness. The characters are very believable in their struggles to forgive and their thoughts and actions.
 I loved the idea of the forgiving jar, I am going to start writing out verses that pop out at me and putting them in a jar.
  I would highly recommend adding this book to your TBR pile :)
  I volunteered to read this book from Barbour Publishing in exchange for my honest feed back. The thoughts and opinions expressed within are my own.

I really enjoyed this and I knew I would, it just took me a while to get used to the writing style but when I did, I raced through it.

This is one hell of an adventure!

Watching Saba grow as a person was interesting. Jack, the cheeky chap, was fun and I loved his interactions with Saba and their fledgling romance--nawww!!

I now need book 2, Rebel Heart, to see how they meet again and to get answers about who DeMalo is, and why he helped.
