Lovers and Newcomers - Rosie Thomas (2010)
A group of friends who hung out together in their twenties, get together in their late fifties to live together in a large country house. As they come together they all begin to look differently at their relationships, and some partnerships end and others begin as they all respond to each other. We also get to meet some locals, and the children who all bring new people to the story.
It was a nice ensemble piece, but in the end I didn't feel invested in the characters and found it a bit too long. 2/5

many years ago i read her "every woman knows a secret" i think i quite enjoyed it (though a rather sad story). not something that stuck though. just a bit of reading to pass the time (perhaps we all need those reading experiences to clear our minds and such at times).
i do enjoy the cover of this book though.
