5.0 out of 5 stars Another great Wendy Holden novel!!, 30 Jan 2008
By R. Harris "beckslouise" (Plymouth, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Filthy Rich (Hardcover)
Despite regularly looking up to check when new books are published by my favourite authors, this popped up unannounced!
A great read where you are taken to a quaint little English village and get to know all of the weird and wonderful characters.
The mad-as-a-hatter vicar whose main aim is to find a wife, the new school headteacher, dealing with falling numbers of children and an odd problem child. There's the eccentric but handsome owner of the manor house, which is secretly crumbling around him and his ever patient wife. There's the new American couple who are trying to fit in, and the mid-thirties solicitor whose wife died in a nasty car crash. To top it all off there is a eco-warrior aubergine dyed psycho, trampling around the town barking orders at everyone. Before long they are all involved in random plots, such as allotment allocation, buried treasure, a WAG trying to build a footballer's mansion and a newly fostered orphan.
A great read with lots of twists and despite trying to predict the ending - you never quite can manage to.
Get it now!!!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Funny and an easy read, 7 Feb 2008
By K. Gregory "Kat Gregory" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Filthy Rich (Hardcover)
I've read nearly all of Wendy Holdens books and this one was as good as the last. The charachters she creates are hilarious (especially the eco-goddess Morag). It's set in Allsop and descibes the lives of Morag, Catherine (the local Headteacher, Phillip (the local solicitor) who tragically lost his wife, Alexandra the footballers gorlfriend and Mary and Monty who live in a crumbling Manor House. It's an eclectic mix that works well and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

2.0 out of 5 stars nothing like as good as her others, 24 Feb 2008
By Paula J (Scotland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Filthy Rich (Hardcover)
Having loved all Wendy Holden's witty romantic comedy books so far, this is a huge disappointment. It will be a bestseller because other fans will, like me, just buy it thinking she is always to be relied on. Not this time, folks! The characters and plot start out almost as good as usual, but possibly because she wanted a big chunky book, she writes in almost too many people, puts in not enough time on some and too much spent on others, and the end is so sudden and summed up in one quick chapter, that it is almost as though she ran out of ideas - or even had someone else finish it. Very poorly written ending, even though she tells us what happens to most of the people in the village, I really wasn't that bothered by then! She definitely 'lost the plot' with this one.
