Reading and blogging...blogging and reading

I just finished a book that I could not put down or at least not while my eyes would cooperate and stay open.  Wonderful read and one that I definitely recommend if you enjoy romances with little to no verbal communication...which I surprising did!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Amazingly different and utterly unique. What can I say about this one that hasn't already been said by others in their reviews...not a whole lot as I went into this story with both the good and the bad to go on but was interested enough to find out what the fuss was all about myself.

I can honestly say I have never read a romance story set in this time era. Prehistoric romances aren't usually hot topics or delved into quite so deeply. Do I want to get into the caveman looking guy vs the modern hip young lady attraction debate, nope not really because in all honesty I saw Ehd as a rugged virile man living a life in harsh times and doing what he needed to do to survive and Beh as one lucky woman to have fallen into his path, without him she would not have survived to see another birthday. Ehd to me was no different than today's mountain men living alone in the woods and fending for themselves.

It was a love story pure and simple in its clearest form. There was no spoken language to misdirect them or to set up misunderstandings, no yelling matches or words of lust or nonsensical debates over trivial issues. It was as clear and to the point as could be when Ehd and Beh were communicating wordlessly. The few words they did share were heartfelt and meaningful, exactly the way our words should be used today.

Will absolutely recommend this story and continue to talk about it for days/weeks/months possibly years to come.
