I thought this book was good. An excellent mix of mythology, folklore, and magic set in Ireland. Also, I found the book to be very female positive - good female characters, strong, intelligent, independent, etc.

My only issue is that the book needed another 50 to 100 pages for the ending. The ending felt fairly rushed, and a lot was not explained. A few issued went unresolved too. I don't know if this is because the author plans a sequel, or if it's because she needed to keep to a page limit for the publisher. Either way, the ending should have really gotten a lot more attention and detail.
