Having already read two of Linda's previous books with the third eagerly waiting to be read sat on my bookshelves. I decided to download the Kindle app for my PC, I'm not a huge lover of reading books on a screen BUT I couldn't let the opportunity to read this eagerly awaited e-book pass me by. For those of you toying about with buying it and reading it on the PC, all I can say is do it as you'll miss out on a FAB read if you don't. By the way I found it easy to concentrate and read from the monitor screen, plus you don't need a bookmark as it takes you straight to the place that you were at when you last read it.What a FAB read!From the first page to the last the story draws you in and the characters form the fabric and padding of the story, layer upon layer like one of Hattie's quilts. Every family has it's own secrets and this family is no different.Alfie forms the padding of the quilt and as Gwen meets each member of the family during her visit to Creake Hall, the layers are built upon. Nothing is as it seems and I found myself trying to second guess what was happening in places. Needless to say most of my guesses were incorrect, as Linda has the ability to make you think one thing and then take you down a completely different thread. I laughed in places, felt sad in places and even shed a tear. I loved the book, the House and the characters and am sad that I've finished it. With some very strong characters in Alfie, Gwen, Hattie, Marek, Viv and Rae we have the fabric of a FAB story that will stay with you for some time.Well worth a read. Roll on the next book Linda is all I can say. :)Comment
