Brida actually is a typical girl who wanted to find her true love..
Brida is just like the rest of us who thought that the person claims to love us isn't the one meant for us...

Brida, a irish girl in search of learning magic for understanding life perse., laments lot of interesting facts about life. Its good to understand the power of sun and moon. But, I feel - first time readers could not make out indepth of it. Her teacher talks about lots on power of sun / moon - but indepth information not upto the mark what I felt in Paulo'book.
