Found this one very dull. Kept reading to find out what happened but barely got through it.

Not quite as good as Coming Home. This one was composed of more less detailed story lines, but it was still excellent.

 I was interested enough in the story to finish it, even though Pandora’s big secret was pretty obvious from near the beginning of the book, but thought the novel was only a middling effort. To read my complete review, see: https://whatmeread.com/2025/03/11/review-2553-september/

All bedrooms were occupied, attics turned into temporary accommodation for gangs of grandchildren, and sparse bathrooms worked overtime. Huge quantities of food were produced, cooked, and eaten every day at dining-room tables elongated by extra leaves. And then, September.
I love a good family saga, and when you take that family and put them in Scotland, I'm going to love it even more. The setting - the Scottish highlands, the characters - real and flawed and funny and interesting, the plots - let's plan a gigantic September party, and subplots - romance and boarding school and family drama, are all classic Rosamunde Pilcher and every bit of it is entertaining and lovely.
