Summary

The day Maggie Lane dies, she sends her daughter Olivia a letter containing the address of Olivia's first love, Richie Briscoe.

Painfully slow

Dreadful narration, story soooooo sloooow. Love this author, but I regret wasting my money on this one. Synopsis - woman has rubbish mother, meets up with old flame. Husband isn’t happy and screws the babysitter. Repeated ad museum.

Intriguing if slow moving

Really intriguing story of slightly slow paced. I found it odd that the central character was in her forties but the narrator sounded like she was in her seventies.

Pithy and sentimental

The lead character was so melodramatic and the narrator was awful. Didn’t enjoy this at all which is a shame as our house by Louise candlish was so good.
