More of A Tortoise then A Hare
I have just finished reading A SEASON OF LEAVES by Catherine Law, what a good read, emotional, very emotional but very readable. A Season Of Leaves is loosely based on fact and it is set mainly during the second World War with a large helping of Man's inhumanity to Man.
The story is as uplifting as it is sad, but I did enjoy it, although at the speed that I read, it took a while.
