I must start this review by saying that i am a big Meave Binchey fan and enjoy all her books, however i was disappointed when this arrived as you can hardly call it a book i finished it in about twenty five minuits.
Had i realised how short it was i wouldnt have purchased it.

Beware--Read This Before Buying
31 July 2009
Format:Paperback
This is not a new book from Maeve Binchy, nor one that you somehow missed. It is only some pages taken from The Copper Beech, so if you've read that, you probably recognize Shancarrig as the name of one of the towns in the book. Don't be fooled into buying Shancarrig.
