Tough questions:
🍁Not be able to taste. Maybe I would lose weight.
🍁Neither
🍁Change the past
🍁Both but the love of my life if I had to choose
🍁Summer but really autumn
🍁 Neither

Book #14 of 2024: “Snow in April” by Rosamunde Pilcher

I fell in love with Pilcher‘s writing in high school and this short little fiction was a reminder of why. Wholesome and old-fashioned, full of evocative imagery and sweet sentiments, I recommend this author to everyone ❤️

My #YearInBooks - Worst Read.

How do I decide what my Least Favorite/ Worst is? It's the book that sticks with me. The one that has me ranting at Books & Brews Club. And this year I'm pained to say it's The Rosamunde Pilcher short story.

I had just finished rereading September and I was in the mood for more, so I picked this.
⬇️

Crinoline_Laphroaig Two things I always say about Rosamunde Pilcher: her books are a bit dated in places and short stories aren't her forte. She needs the space of longer novels like Winter Solstice. (My Favorite!) Both of these problems show up big time in The End of Summer.

Crinoline_Laphroaig ⚠️ Kind of aSpoilery in next comment. ⬇️ 2y

Crinoline_Laphroaig Jane returns home to Scotland after living in California to find her childhood crush has become a horrible person, who wants to marry her because he's in debt and she's inheriting the Estate. The problem is they're FIRST COUSINS!!! And book setting is 1960s! Why would you do that? It would have been better if character had been written as a childhood friend instead.⬇️

Crinoline_Laphroaig Also Jane has absolutely no goals or ambitions. Her grandmother talks about the opportunities for education and careers for young women. When she asks Jane her about plans/ job, she is perfectly content to let her father and grandmother support her. She's the worst kind heroine.

Definitely not Pilcher's best work. But as always Jilly Bond narration is perfect. 🔚 2y

Voices In Summer | Rosamunde Pilcher

This has been my least favorite Rosamunde Pilcher. They're always a bit dated but usually a comfort read.

Main Character is just way to whiny and weak. The mysterious surgery for women's issues that if it doesn't work will have to have Hysterectomy. Plus the ‘If I can‘t give you a child, I can‘t give you anything.‘ storyline wasn't my thing.

And someone poisons a dog.

I thought I had read every Pilcher back in the day but I don‘t remember this one. And back in the day is 20+ years ago so it may be a memory issue. 🤷🏻‍♀️

SRWCF I love finding works from an author that I didn't know about! Through Litsy, I discovered a book by George Orwell that I had never heard of before. 😊 3y

I have been missing reading her books. Oh how I wish she had written more. She‘s my got to writer when I need something gentle and real. I love the women she wrote. I always feel closer to my mother (she‘s been gone 15years), when I read Rosamunde Pilcher.
