AWESOME BOOK!!!
Hey everyone, yesterday I read the COOLEST BOOK....in my opinion. It's called The Raging Quiet, by Sherryl Jordan. Has anyone read it? It is SOOOO good! I started it yesterday morning, and when we went to lunch, dinner, or anywhere else, I got pissed off cuz I wanted to keep reading. Here's a summary:
Set in an indefinite time and place that suggest pre-industrial Ireland, this story follows the fortunes of Marnie, eldest sister of a large family of tenant farmers. When the landowner's son takes an interest in her, though she is not drawn to him, she accepts his offer of marriage to help her family and travels with him to his dead grandmother's run-down cottage by the sea, which he claims is worth the whole of the rest of his family's estate.

Only a few days into their marriage, the bridegroom dies from a fall while thatching the roof. Marnie is left to fend for herself in a village of suspicious and superstitious locals where only the priest befriends her. The one other person with whom she has contact is a young boy called "Raver" by the villagers who believe he is mad.

Gradually she comes to believe he is not mad, but deaf. She devises hand signs and wins first his trust, then his devotion as she opens a world of communication to one who has been isolated and ostracized his whole life, though the priest has taken care of him. However, upon seeing her effect on the mad boy (whose name Marnie has changed to "Raven") the locals decide that Marnie must be a witch.

I highly recommend this book to any romance readers, or anyone who enjoys reading. It is MY FAVORITE book!!!! EVER!!!!!!!!!!!! Well, I g2g, I'm hungry, & I'm g2 start reading The Raging Quiet again.^-^
I <3 it!!!
