Reading Ireland Reviews: Leonard and Hungry Paul by Rónán Hession and Broken Souls by Patricia Gibney #BookReview #Audiobook #ReadingIrelandMonth26 #Begorrathon26 #FinishingTheSeries2026 #BeatTheBacklist26 As week 3 of reading Ireland comes to a close, I am posting my 7th and 8th review of books by Irish authors. I want to thank Cathy@746 Books for my copy of Leonard and Hungry Paul. I won it on her blog several years ago, and I finally read it. I really enjoyed it and now I see there is a TV show made about the characters in the book.

I am sharing my thoughts on the third and fourth ones today. The Dark Hours is a crime thriller set in Cork by Irish author Amy Jordan. The next is The Lost Letters of Ireland by Susanne O'Leary. It is part of the Starlight Cottages series I've been reading set in Kerry and is a romance, leaning a bit toward women's fiction.

I probably wouldn't have picked up The Elements by John Boyne, as it is a long one. It was originally published as 4 separate books, but is now published with all of them in one volume.

f the poem. The text reads: The Clothes Shrine It was a whole new sweetness In the early days to find Light white muslin blouses On a see-through nylon line Drip-drying in the bathroom Or a nylon slip in the shine Of its own electricity - As if St Brigid once more Had rigged up a ray of sun Like the one she’d strung on air To dry her own cloak on (Hard-pressed Brigid, so Unstoppably on the go) - The damp and slump and unfair Drag of the workaday Made light of and got through As usual, brilliantly. From Electric Light (2001)
