1: The Shell Seekers
The condition of this book was very disappointing. It was listed as good or very good but the pages are very yellowed and overall condition is fair at best. I have purchased used products from you before and I have been very satisfied. Not this time. (The book is an excellent read.)

2: Amazing story
This book I read over 15 yrs. ago and it started a wonderfully rich literary relationship with the talented Rosamunde Pilcher. I now have read all of her books, and each one is fantastic. Just sorry that she is no longer writing.

3: emotionally satisfying
I first read this book a couple of decades ago when my mother introduced me to Rosamund Pilcher. I've read it several times since then and last night watched the wonderful film version on television. I'm curious if anyone knows if the book of poetry Richard gives Penelope, Shoreline by Douglas McTeer is fictional or real? I don't find any information about it on line and yet the poem read from it is intriguingly lovely and made me wonder if I could find the author. Do you supposed Ms. Pilcher wrote it herself? (the poem) I'd be interested in hearing from anyone with clues about this. Thanks.

4: Love this book
This book is great for everyone who likes a wonderful story. Rosamund Pilcher takes you on a wonderful journey of life with all the tangles and heartache and joy that is a part of it.

5: UP THERE WITH MY ALL TIME FAVORITES
It is high summer and I have just come away from visiting once again with Penelope Keeling and all the wonderful characters in The Shell Seekers. I read this book about 15 years ago when my kids were small.(I have a recollection of watching them in a wading pool while I cried for Penelope over Richard). I usually try to read one old favorite a summer and this year this was it! I long ago lost the paperback copy I had of this book so this time I read a library copy. This book is such a treasure on so many levels that I am going to order a copy for keeps!
It would be wonderful to read these 24 years later what happened to Nancy,Noel and Monica her children and to Antonia and Danus her "adopted" grandchildren. Much of this novel takes place during the second world war.
I seem to be stuck in the WW II in Britain era in my fiction reading,TV watching and DVD watching. See my recomendations below.
