A Winged thing and Holy - A Great Read Rating: 3 (poetic) ***

Attending a poetry workshop once a week is the only let up Genny DuPont receives after she works 40 hour weeks for a travel agency. There is a man at the group who she calls Mountain Man, who's poetry is so amazing that Genny starts to crave him, to want to know more. There is an instant connection between Jenny and Jon (Mountain Man) but Jon himself is struggling to find his poetic inspiration. His dream of becoming a famous, printed poet is slipping away so he uses Genny as his muse. Things take an unexpected turn through the story, with love, lust and betrayal.


I have to admit poetry isn't really my thing and I wouldn't have looked at this book twice, but from the first page I was hooked. Genny & Jon were amazing characters to read and I got fully dragged into their relationship - especially as their connection appears to be on a higher level. The ending shocked me and I don't want to give to much away but I was angry for her, angry at what happened. This is a great read for anyone and a MUST READ for poetry fans.
