This is one of the best books I have ever read. It is such a sweet story.
One of my all time favorite
The characters are great in this story and so many truths about family and friendship.
Boring. Needed an editor
I read this book every other year. It’s that good.
Rosamunde Pilcher is my favorite author. Anything she has written is better than almost anything out there today. One off the few authors i re-read from time to time.
Excellent
I love this wonderful book and have read it 4 times. I think I will check it out on Audible.
A classic family saga that still speaks to the modern reader of WWII historical fiction. A cast of unforgettable characters.
Definitely one of the best books I have ever read. Just lovely.
One of the best books ever! Totally loved it from page 1 on!
It takes you to another world but it’s not a war movie it shows you the English world over multiple generations and different views . I really liked the end solution Solomon’s like!

Would recommend this book to any reader. It’s that good!!
Loved the movie after reading this book!

I read “The Shell Seekers” many years ago and don’t have a copy, so I bought this kindle edition just to have it. Don’t miss these Rosamund Pilcher titles. They are warm, wonderful and …

It’s my favorite book ever! I’c Read it 3 times and listened to it twice.
