'definitely a heartwarming tale' BIG ISSUE IN THE NORTH
Product Description
Brodie Logan's seemingly idyllic life with her once-loving husband is suddenly turned upside down - so she moves to a big shared house in Liverpool, and there meets a remarkable group of people. Twenty-five-year-old Diana seems so innocent and childlike, yet she was responsible for raising her three younger brothers. But suddenly there is no place for her in the only home she has ever known. Vanessa, once a successful career woman, still can't get over the shock of an unexpected rejection. And Rachel, barely fifteen, with her baby daughter, Poppy, is determined to keep the child who some people seem determined to take away from her. As they while away the brilliant summer under the trees in the lovely garden of the big house, friendships form that will last a lifetime - but there are troubles on the horizon; after all nothing lasts forever...

Really interesting idea but the characters are flat,
By calenita "Calenita" (Golden Lake Ontario) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Nothing Lasts Forever (Paperback)
I read the whole book so it isn't that bad but it could have been SO much better. The first few chapters are great. You get involved in the different stories of four women - a woman whose daughter is off to university, a young woman taking care of her younger siblings, a pregnant teen and a woman about to get married. Of course things go badly for all of them but then they end up living together in the house owned by one of them. The problem is after the initial interest in the characters they all were so flawed I just did not like any them. We get a great beginning then the rest is RUSHED. Even Diana (who I think was suppossed to be the good one in all of this)was anoying and abrasive and Diana's dad Jim - why was he so attractive to Brodie? He had left his family and never came back even though he was in touch with his mate so he would ostensibly know Diana had been left to raise the boys on her own. The first half is good but the rest? How did Vanessa lose her weight? Why is Brodie's daughter so unreasonable about the baby? Why was Brodie so unreasonable? Why the mean aunt from Ireland? I read the whole book to find out what happened, but I wish the author had done a better job. Not a satisfactory ending at all.
