The Name of the Rose by Umberto Eco ★★★☆☆
An impressive level of research and love of history went into this book. But if you don’t share Echo’s niche love of medieval ecclesiastical history the book is tear-out-your-hair frustrating.

Irish Gothic: Tales of Celtic Horror by Ronald Kelly
The Spawn of Arget Bethir ★★★★★
A young monk has violent dreams that lead him to discover the legends that tore apart his family. Kelly combines The Book of Kells and werewolves to create a legend that deserves its own series!Postcard from Kilkenny ★★★★½
A man receives a postcard from his long lost uncle, an uncle who should be dead, an uncle who was rumored to be a vampire. Kelly even managed to slip in a joke about his vampire novel Blood Kin, a book Graeme recommended!

The Dead by James Joyce ★★★☆☆
A boring dinner party ends with a poignant moment - that is all.
It did add some depth of emotion to Emily Prentiss at the end of Demonology, S4E17, Criminal Minds.
