I participate in a couple of message boards, but this is my first "hello" here. I'm looking forward to getting to know people at inreview! I am poking around on a few different message boards to figure out which ones I like best.
So, for my first entry here...
I love books, and read two or three every week. I wanted to pass along a wonderful discovery that I made last week, a new book called "Beneath a Marble Sky". This novel retells the incredible story behind the creation of the Taj Mahal.
I will read Beneath a Marble Sky several times during my lifetime. I know that. The book is that good. The beauty of this novel made me cry on several occasions (the last time this happened was when I read The Grapes of Wrath). And amazingly, Beneath a Marble Sky is not only powerful, but one that inspired my fingers to turn the pages as quickly as possible. What a perfect, perfect debut novel. I think we can expect incredible things from the author, John Shors.
Has anyone else read this lovely book? I'd enjoy chatting about it. I bought a few copies for my friends, but just passed them out the other day.
I hope everyone is well!
