Book Reviews of September
Book Review: It doesnt get much better.
Summary: 5 Stars
Pilcher's sequel continues with a book that rivals THE SHELL SEEKERS and stands on it's own merit. Her characters come alive amidst the pages, drawing you in deeper with every sentence. The book continues with Noel, the egotistical son of Penelope Keeling, as he searches for his misplaced sense of self. In Alexa he may find a joy and love that he is not quite ready for or capable of. As in all of Pilcher's books there is a plethora of characters, all as important as the next with stories that tie together and make you feel like part of the family. Love, death, loss, insanity, handicaps that interfere with life as it is, and most of all that sense of belonging to a family that she instills so easily with the stroke of her pen. I can never get enough of this author. Kelsana 11/03/01
Book Review: Lack of plot hurts this book
Summary: 3 Stars
Rosamunde Pilcher is a wonderful writer to read. September had enjoyable parts but the overall lack of plot does hurt this book. The setting and characters were delightfully explored and Noel's story furthred from what was told in Shell Seekers. It is hard to follow Shell Seekers (a 5-star read).Book Review: Loving it...
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the Pilcher I've come to love. It's like a visit to Scotland, and a good gossip with an old friend. The characters so genuine you are drawn into their lives and don't want to leave. Fortunately I'm only half through the book (and I resent anything that takes me away from it).Book Review: Merely OK
Summary: 3 Stars
Compared with The Shell Seekers, all Pilcher books pale.Book Review: My Favorite
Summary: 5 Stars
September is a book I can pick up anytime and turn to any page and no matter what mood I'm in, I feel like I'm having the best visit with an old friend. This is the first Rosamunde Pilcher book I had the pleasure to read (and re-read several times) and I've since read every book she's had published. Her discription of even the most common event is heart warming. The only thing left to be desired, about this book, is a third book about these lovely people.
