2010 TAYSHAS High School Reading List

Dowd, Siobhan. (2008). Bog child. Random House, Inc..


Fergus lives in Northern Ireland during the Troubles. He's trying to balance his exams, and deal with his brother who is on a hunger strike. He and his uncle discover a body buried in a bog, which turns out to be nearly 2000 years old. He begins having strange dreams about the life of the girl whose body they found.

This by far was the most difficult book for me to read. I couldn’t get into it. I really didn’t find it all that interesting. I do like how the author based some of the story on true events.
