 Summer fun June 23, 2008

Grab your beach chair and prepare to be entertained! Reading Jane Green's latest novel brought back wonderful memories of a Nantucket summer vacation spent in our own beach cottage. While reading this story I was easily absoarbed into the world of Ms. Green's characters and the wisdom of a wonderful woman I wish I would be lucky enough to rent a room from. I recommend you tell the kids to order pizza and spend a few hours with your nose stuck in this book.
Loved this book and I don't read Chick-lit (THANKS for putting it on the KINDLE!) June 30, 2008

I don't read Chick Lit or romance novels and I usually read non fiction. So this was a total departure for me... but I read a review for this recently and thought I wanted a light read and the Kindle price was right on.
I have a Kindle (OMG if you don't have one RUN to the home page and order it!!!).. This edition came out a few days after the publication..
I loved the story and I couldnt wait to get back to it.. I was up way too late finishing it in one day.. its not a tough read but you fall in love with these people.. its a great beach read but its not "dumbed" down as so many books in this type of genre are so I am off to find more Jane Green, this is the first one of hers I have read and I really really enjoyed it! And again thanks for the Kindle Edition. I wouldnt have considered buying this before.. Kindle changed that, and introduced me to new authors such as this one.

Jane Green has presented her legion of fans with another hit. Green has an art for bringing her characters to life and a gift of storytelling. Having read every single one of Green's novels, I have found The Beach House to be just as enjoyable and entertaining.
I am confidant that The Beach House will prove to be another bestseller for Jane Green. Keep them coming and we'll keep on reading.

Best book yet... June 18, 2008
8 out of 10 found this review helpful
From the moment I began this book, I was hooked. It was Jane's best book yet, the characters were interesting and the writing was so rich with descriptions I felt like I was in Nan's house as a fly on the wall. There is a definite lightheartedness to her writing this time around.
It's so nice to see her writing evolve with each book. I was sad to see it end, but looking forward to her next book.
Loved it! June 26, 2008

This was my first Jane Green book. Her writing style is perfection. She described her characters so wonderfully that I am sad the story is over. As sappy as it may sound, I felt like a part of that Nantucket home.
Prior to starting this book, I read a book where the writer over-analyzed, over-explained, and just plain over-did it. This book was a breath of fresh air... even with all it's drama.
I'm searching for another Jane Green book now. :)
