Comfortable, predictable Aga saga
It's fine. Light reading... Trials and travails of family relationships. Nothing challenging, nothing offensive. A reasonable way to pass a few hours.

Yes I defiantly will be listening again. I enjoyed this story so much I really miss the family. Each character is very well drawn. Even the children are full of personality.

I loved so many Characters. Olivia for her personal growth. Harriet for her common sense. Robert I'm not sure why but I understand him. Freya for not copping. And Gloria for being GLORIA

Engrossing
This was not at all my type of book. Can't even remember why I got it. However, I quite enjoyed it, to the point of listening to almost a whole day toward the end. Numerous strands to the whole which came together well.

Lovely summery read
I'm a big fan of Lucy Diamond and Summer at Shell Cottage did not disappoint. Her novels are like a warm literary hug.
The characters were engaging and real and there were even a few 'no way!' moments skilfully woven in.
If you're looking for a summery, light hearted, engaging listen - give it a go.
