3.0

Rosamund Pilcher is a master of setting a seasonal tone for her stories. Her books encourage you to slow down, appreciate the richness of the setting, focus on the pleasures of conversation and the relationships between the characters.

I wasn’t as invested in the characters of “September” as I was when  reading Pilcher's “Winter Solstice,” but this book provided the seasonal setting I was craving.
