Review

'The novel has a gently sweet flavour, it continues to beguile because of Pilcher's warmth, sincerity and easy, undemanding prose' (The Sunday Times )

'Compelling pages packed with convincing characters, vivid settings and weepy bits' (Daily Mail )

'A great featherbed of a novel, all the right ingredients' (Woman & Home )

Much-needed balm to soothe the troubled mind' (Sunday Express )

5.0 out of 5 stars Great, magical a spellbinding novel!, 16 April 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Coming Home (Paperback)
I fell in love with the setting right from the start especially the big house Nancherrow along with all the characters. A brilliant read. I read it at the age of 11 and now at the ripe old age of 14 I still regard it as one of the best novels ever.

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely fantastic! An enthralling read!!, 21 May 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Coming Home (Paperback)
What can I say about this book. It was so good that I could not put it down until I had it read from cover to cover. I saw the film on TV and it was good but it was nowhere near as brilliant as the book. It makes you cry, it makes you laugh but you cannot get away from the fact that it really touches you. The glamourous lifestyle at Nancherrow, Judith's growing up in all the different houses and at school too. Every single bit of this book was a good read and I have already reread it several times since buying it a few months ago.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderfully comforting book, 15 Jan 2008
This review is from: Coming Home (Paperback)
"Coming home" is one of my desert island books. Like other reviewers here, I have read and re-read this book many times. Rosamund Pilcher is a genius at painting a detailed picture in print. Her characters are compelling and human, despite some of them moving in circles fairly foreign to the average woman of today. I love her attention to detail and the complex cast of characters that she involves. She is also a master of descriptive scenery - without ever become too verbose! I recommend this title wholeheartedly to anyone who loves a warm, moving and delightful story. It's a great book to drag out and read for the umpteenth time when you are feeling a little unwell!

5.0 out of 5 stars One of my favourite books of all time
