A review by lindasdarby
The House at Tyneford by Natasha Solomons

2.0

I actually thought this book was crap. I read it and read it quickly. Here is one of the problems - the writing was so uneven. Tons of descriptions of the land and the sea - boring. The story went in fits and starts. Maybe everyone isn't like me but I like to have a bit of a timeline when a book is covering years - I couldn't figure out how long she had been gone or anything that happened with time and that really bothered me. Also I don't want to spoil things but there was never any resolve with several important plot points. That really bugged me. Basically this book was kid of crappy and it felt like she hijacked other plots from better books and then ruined them. Not a great read.
