I loved this book!! I wish this were a series. I'm not ready to say goodbye to Lillie, Frankie & Peggy quite yet. This is a charming story about three women's lives that takes place in a quaint little Irish town. Has characters that were easily related to, plot that wasn't overflowing with "extras" and refreshing cozy settings. I especially liked visiting the knitting shop. If you like Maeve Binchy then you will also like Cathy Kelly.
Cathy Kelly has been lauded as the natural successor to Maeve Binchy, and I have to agree. This was a totally involving, heartwarming tale with multiple plot lines and characters, that I had trouble putting down, couldn't wait to read the next page, yet kept wishing it would not end. I loved this book, as I have this author's previous books.
I loved this book. Wonderful, light read - left me wanting to know what happens to each of the characters. Lillie finds her birth mother's family in Ireland after having been given up for adoption. She's established a family and recently lost her husband. She meets her brother and his family and establishes wonderful bonds with the town's inhabitants.
