A Place Like Home: Short Stories by Rosamunde Pilcher
4.0
“A PLace Like Home” is a collection of fifteen short stories of which i’ve just finished reading a sampler containing five of them.
Each story is a timeless, cosy romance, set in different locations both home and abroad. I particularly enjoyed “Skelmerton” since it was based in my local area of Northumberland and I suspect a lot of female readers will relate to “The Holiday”, where a wife surprises her husband of twenty five years with a holiday, only to find she’s a golf widow once again.
The late internationally bestselling author Rosamunde Pilcher is an old school writer, transporting her readers to an entirely other world of ‘Happy Ever After’ love and romance that have resonated with women of all ages, across her many years of writing.
These charming little stories contain strong female characters, that you instantly care about and intriguing, enjoyable little scenarios, offering escapism and a warmhearted feel good factor.
I’d be very happy to read the full collection of stories and recommend this author and “A Place Like Home” to romance readers young and old alike.
