Book Reviews of The Shell Seekers
Book Review: Absolutely incredible...
Summary: 5 Stars
I found this book while rifling through my best friend's library. As an avid reader of the classics, I was amused to find what I thought to be a romance novel hidden away in the back for no one to find. Little did I know what I was getting myself into. What a truly entrancing book. Ms. Pilcher's writing made me feel as though I was standing right next to Penelope as we went through her sad yet wonderful life. This is more than just a "vacation read", it is a book I want to have around for my daughter to discover some day.Book Review: All time Favorite
Summary: 5 Stars
I read this book in the late 1980s and loved it. I went on to read all of Rosamunde Pilcher's work. The Shell Seekers is an all time favorite. When I think of it I think of pulling on a well loved soft sweater on chilly day or sipping a flavored tea on a gray afternoon. It is a just a wonderful read. I think I am going to read it again - almost 20 years later and I'm sure it will bring the same joy. I hightly and often recommend "The Shell Seekers".Book Review: Best Book I've Read in a Long Time
Summary: 5 Stars
This book deserves more than 5 stars. A co-worker gave it to me to read while she was looking for a book by another author whose series I started reading. I feel spoiled now and don't want to read a book by a different author! I have not finished The Shell Seekers yet, but if I had my way I would take a day off from work and read it from the time I get up in the morning til the time I go to bed so I can just immerse myself in it. The characters are so realistic and you get so drawn into their saga of their lives that you feel that you are a part of their world. You will love to hate Noel and Nancy who are the incredibly spoiled adult-brats of Penelope! This is just an incredibly delicious book and I can't say enough good things about it. Just read it and you'll see why so many people gave it a 5 star rating.Book Review: Fall in Love with the Characters
Summary: 5 Stars
You'll feel like you know the characters in this novel. The story will make you want to put your feet up and shut the real world out for a while.Book Review: Five Stars is NOT Enough! The best book by far.
Summary: 5 Stars
This was truly the best novel I've read. I was totally absorbed in this story and all of the characters. Pilcher's descriptive writing makes you feel you are there. You see what is written. You smell the smells and hear the sounds. You definitely feel what is going on. I don't think I ever loved a character more than Penelope. I couldn't put this down, yet I never wanted it to end. I wish these people were real so I could sit with them and learn more about their lives. Thank you Rosamunde for making me love your story!
