Voices In Summer

In Voices in Summer, #1 New York Times bestselling author Rosamunde Pilcher invites readers into long summer days on the coast of Cornwall—and into the stormy heart of a newlywed.

Shy, recovering from illness, and away from her husband, Laura Haverstock is a fearful heart on the verge of intimate discoveries...about herself, her family, and the source of true love within her.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Pilcher displays a perfect touch!” —Booklist

Compelling characters with a mystery thrown in

This is the 2nd Rosamunde Pilcher book I’ve read. The first was “The Shell Seekers.” I loved that book so much that I had to find other Pilcher novels and started my journey with this one.
It’s not quite as good as “The Shell Seekers,” but I REALLY enjoyed it. The set up is the same: the storyline is one main character (Laura), and the rest are characters whose lives intertwine with hers.
This story has a mystery thrown in that is a side plot IMHO.

I think Pilcher is a great writer of modern books. I usually prefer the classics, but these have been delightful. As an American, I’ve been quick to add visiting Cornwall on my bucket list.
One note: I wish the chapters had titles.

I loved it!

What a sweet story! It was just the kind of story I needed on this snowy, cold weekend!

Rosamunde Pilcher, always calms me

In times of great strife in the world, I always look for a Rosamunde Pilcher book to calm me. Although I prefer her long tomes, I decided to try a short one. This one served the usual purpose spectacularly, and read by Jilly Bond, my favorite narrator of RP’s books.

Perfect Pairings

It is a lovely story to be enjoyed on the beach or in a backyard garden on a hot summer day. Romance and mystery is one of the perfect pairings and the other is the author and narrator.

Heart-tugging Twists!

Story compelling, weaving many characters and themes in an appealing way. However, the narration at times sounded a skosh too fast or dramatic, creating listener did-ease.
All came right in the end, however, leaving me with wonderfully calm feelings.
