I just received this and it looks so intriguing.  Anyone read it?  Thoughts??  I may start it tomorrow. :)

I read it years ago (okay, maybe 3 years ago) and it was all right.    I don't remember much about it, but it was slow moving.   It was educational - I had no idea that Irish girls were sold into slavery in the Carribean.  

In short, I think it sounded better than I thought it actually was, but you might like it more than I did~!
