This book was recommended to me by my mum who kept going on about how it was the best book she had ever read so I decided I'd give it a go after reading through the first chapter of The House At Riverton in a book shop and deciding I liked the authors style of writing.
I absolutely loved the way that the book interweaved the different characters throughout the novel and didn't find it too difficult to get to grips with different chapters being set in different time frames, if anything I found the variety nice and it kept the book moving along building the story beautifully to it's conclusion. Throughout this book I kept trying to second guess what the authors intended plot was going to be, she continually surprised ... Read More: >>More Details |

I enjoyed reading this book. It is well written, original and funny at times. I would not say it is unforgettable but a good holiday read. Contrary to some other readers I really warmed up to Pippa.

I started enthusiastically enough - after reading the back cover and normally loving historical novels I thought this would be a book to relish. The initial descriptions of London were powerful and enthralling but I might as well have stopped after the first dozen pages as it degenerated into a weak plotted, characterless but "nasty" little book. If I wanted to read about drug addicts and animal torturers but don't enjoy following a plot that is at least believable I would have been chuffed with my choice of book - but as that isn't my normal literary entertainment I completely wasted my money. My husband did only get about twenty pages in (without knowing my opinion)and chucked it in the bin.
My advice - don't bother, buy something else, it's not worth ... Read More: >>More Details |

Due to the acclaims given to this novel, I expected something truly unique; especially due to the interesting narrative - death. However, I couldn't be more disappointed if I tried.
I have read my fair share of books and I am also currently studying Nazi Germany, so I have some insight into Germany around the time in the novel. Before I delved into this book, I thought it sounded incredibly interesting; the narrative was different, the setting and date was at a time of interest and the mystery seemed to be lurking from the synopsis on the back. However, instead of feeling like I was connecting with the characters and enjoying the story line, I felt like I was being taught a History lesson into Nazi Germany all over again. Now don't get ...

I took one look at the cover of this book and knew I had to read it. It instantly said 'Cornwall' to me. I was not disappointed. When the book arrived it was packed in my suitcase ready to take to Cornwall. It took a lot of inner strength not to read it before our holiday.
Once started I really couldn't put it down. Infact, I'd get up an hour earlier every day just to have some quiet reading time. We managed to get to Lamorna Cove and it really brought the book to life for me. Friends of mine who have borrowed it loved it too. >>More Details |

A fantastic read! I've recommended it everyone I know, and have now starting reading the rest of Patrick Gale's books. Rough Music is also excellent.

I've read a lot of the other reviews posted and this book seems pretty divisive - not what I expected. I personally loved it - I sobbed through the final chapters. It delivered on everything I expected. I'd call it truly an epic, one I will go back to read again and again. The different strands of the story are very carefully and patiently woven together. The characters are very skillfully portrayed - I felt so much tenderness for Leo's father. In all, this story was so very moving and beautifully written. Those 1 star reviewers must have hearts of made of granite!

I thought this book was cleverly written, from the view of a 9 year old boy - it is only because we have historical hindsight of the events that are being described by the boy, who does not understand, that the full story plays out in your imagination as the story unfolds.
I did not expect the story to end the way it did. I was gripped. >>More Details |

Having read and enjoyed Birdsong I bought this to read on holiday. It is nothing like Birdsong!
The book is in the form of a diary and initially I found it difficult going as the language is almost "Vicki Pollard" in places but this is because Mike Engleby is young; as he gets older his vocabulary and literary skills improve but by then I found the book totally compelling. You get drawn into the narrative, never quite sure exactly what is the truth and what emotion you should be feeling; it is that good. One of the best books I've read this year. >>More Details |
