Fun and Sassy. 
None. Fun story, easy to follow, light-hearted Nothing!! An amazing look into a time that made Wales the capital of the iron world. The brutality of the times and the control over the Welsh people. Provides a subtle degree of backstory. Fills in a few holes. It doesn't come across as Harry Pierce. An ok read... Dissappointing!! amazing story, fantastic characters, beautiful writing. Its a little long, and confusing at times.Three Weeks with My Brother - Nicholas Sparks
