Glasgow Libraries discussion

We hold a monthly staff book group here in the Mitchell Library and we are currently reading The True and Splendid History of the Harristown Sisters If you've read it then join our conversation or if you'd like to borrow it then head over to the online catalogue and borrow a copy. http://libcat.csglasgow.org/web/arena

Set in the 1800's, you'll follow the story of the seven Swiney sisters, from a life of abject poverty in rural Ireland to the streets of Venice, Italy.

The book group thought the book was well written but lengthy. We agreed that the ending was little bit 'happy ever after', which seems to be a trend in the publishing world at the minute.
