Add a CommentThis book is so atmospheric. I could just about smell the food Ettie was cooking at the Briny Cafe. I have never lived anywhere near the water, and I know logically that I would hate the inconvenience of being unable to simply walk down the street, but this book almost changed my mind. I could absolutely see myself living in this wonderful, quirky community where everyone knows everyone else and they look after each other because that's just what good neighbours do. The only thing I didn't like about the book was Kate, I didn't understand why she acted so stupidly and erratically and treated Sam so strangely. I didn't think Kate's behaviour was satisfactorily explained by her mother's behaviour towards her. But other than that it was a great book.
So disappointed with this book as I have enjoyed Susan's others so much. I didn't finish reading it.
