3.0 out of 5 stars It took a while but I liked it, 11 Nov 2006
By S. Doogan (Manchester, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I have just this minute finished reading this book. First impresstions, strange! and where is it going? But I carried on reading it and it started to grow on me. I can see 'if you could see me now' was a stepping stone to this book, and it was an improvement as I didn't enjoy that book, more of a childrens book. This book is different to the traditional 'boy meets girl' chic lit she has wrote. This book is an improvement from her last one but not as great as 'P.S I love you' and 'Where the rainbow ends'.

4.0 out of 5 stars Magical!, 26 Oct 2006
I've read all of Cecelia's books now, and thoroughly enjoyed all of them. 'A Place Called Here' is more akin to 'If You Could See Me Now' than the other two in that it's a more magical book, with (as the quote on the back cover testifies' 'more than a touch of fairytale.' Sure, it's hardly a great work of literature, but it's good fun and like her other novels is a bit of an emotional rollercoaster. And like her other novels, it brought a hint of moisture to my cynical old eyes over the closing pages. Wonderful.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing, 14 April 2007
By R. Wetherill "rakyeltzen" (England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I bought this book after being enchanted by 'P.S. I love you' 'Where Rainbows End' and 'If you could see me now' and I expected from this book the same high standard as the other three books. However, this book was slow to get going and ended rather disappointingly. Although it is well writen the plot, well there was very little plot and what plot there was, wasn't developed very well. It wasn't a bad book in itself but it was not up to the standard of her previous books. It was frustrsting to know that she can write so much better than this.
