5 out of 5 stars Another great read   June 23, 2008
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

I loved this book. It brought me back to the Nantucket I knew as a kid and, the island as I know it today. The essence of the island is beautifully captured. I found it to be a hopeful and human story about a very believeable cast of characters who, all in life transitions, come together under one roof. Green is a master story-teller. Smart, witty and, to my happy surprise, a whole lot deeper and nuanced than would expect from the "genre". Highly recommended.


2 out of 5 stars I Didn't Like It   June 23, 2008

I was most disappointed in this book, especially given how many raves it received. I had a problem with the fact that everyone in the book was getting divorced or having an affair. No one had a normal, healthy relationship. Also, I thought the characters were flat and the ending was very trite and predictable. Give me the old Jane Green any day.


5 out of 5 stars Devoured The Beach House over a weekend and loved it!   June 23, 2008

The Beach House is the perfect summer read. I instantly fell in love with the characters (Nan, Daff and Michael were my personal favorites) and the twists and turns had me on the edge of my chaise lounge! Kudos to Jane Green for penning another fabulous novel!

I have read all of her books and I must say this is her best. This one is a fast read and has great characters to follow. You won't be disappointed in the least!!!!

Hope this comes out on Kindle soon! I passed by it in Borders and almost bought it but told myself to wait since I invested in a Kindle. I have enjoyed all her books to date and can't wait to get into this one!!!!
