A friend of mine loaned me The Beach House by Jane Green.I've read almost all of her books and I really enjoy them.
However, this one has taken me well over two months to finish. I've started other books while reading this one as well. And it's not that it's not a "good" book, I'm just not getting into it.
Here's a description of the book.
Nan Powell is a free-spirited, sixty-five-year-old widow who's not above the skinny-dipping in her neighbors' pools when they're away and who dearly loves her Nantucket home. But when she discovers the money she thought would last forever is dwindling, she realizes she must make a drastic changes to save her beloved house. So Nan takes out an ad: Rooms to rent for the summer in a beautiful old Nantucket home with water views and direct access to the beach.
Slowly people start moving into the house, filling it with noise, laughter, and with tears. As the house comes alive again, Nan finds her family and friends expanding. Her son comes home for the summer, and then an unexpected visitor turns all their lives upside down. Jane Green once again proves herself one of the preeminent writers of the contemporary women's fiction.
Have any of you read this book? Did you have any troubles getting through it? Did you love it or hate it, or are you in between?
Why can't I finish this book!!!
Happy Reading.
