Holding by Graham Norton
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Reviewed by: Michelle

I have a bit of confession to make. I have no idea the author of the Holding was a famous European TV host and so you could say that I read this book blind. I did not know what to expect from Graham Norton whether I should expect a serious.humorous or suspenseful story line. And let’s just say, Norton took me by complete surprise as he astounded me with his ability to create a story that was compelling, mysterious, and entertaining.

With his vivid imagery, readers are transported to a rural village in Ireland. Having not been to Ireland, Norton does a terrific job describing in detail the setting and the townspeople. In his doing of creating that setting, readers are taken down a literary journey where we are assaulted with mystery and suspense. Without spoiling the book, it reminds me of reading an Agatha Christie novel but with a different flair from the author.

Overall, I found this book to be mixed with mystery and yet wildly rich with entertainment!
