A Super Read March 8, 2008
6 out of 8 found this review helpful
I bought this book for my teenager son to encourage him to read. If it is not sport or top gear he is not interested. I will keep working on him to read this book.
Bog in Ireland is where you get fuel (turf) for an open fire. So I am not sure the title is good for England becasue when I have talked to friends about it they think of a toilet.
The book has a very good story, about a 18 year old about to do his A levels. The story is based in about 1985. The boy discovers a body of a child in the bog. It has a couple of good twists to it and some humour when things seem very bleak. I don't want to give the story plot away, but would just recemmond the book strongly.
