Myrrens Geschenk (De Bezieling, #1) af Fiona McIntosh
Ik heb het 3 sterren gegeven. Ik twijfelde over 4 sterren, vooral vanwege de zeer goede leesbaarheid en het idee van het geschenk. Maar ergens kon het verhaal me toch niet helemaal meeslepen. Ik bleef onthouden dat ik getrouwd was en kinderen had en zo. Bij een boek waar ik 4 steren voor zou geven, weet ik dat gewoon even niet meer.

Lightweight story about two men who meet in India and work together in a gold mining community during the inter war years of 1920s. The loves and trials of their adult lives are prefaced with the story of their early days prior to the meeting and how those early experiences influence the rest of their lives.
