A review by tamsterdam_reads
Coming Home to Penvennan Cove by Linn B. Halton

4.0

This novel had charm but needed a bit more of character development with the secondary characters. I felt interactions were a bit forced and a few ends were not tied about the way a character reacted to the Kerra. However, if you love watching HGTV, (which I do), you’ll really like reading about all the home renovations that Kerra undergoes with her home and her next door neighbour, Drew’s home. The home renovation work was written into detail and it connected the various happenings of the story.

The developing relationship between Kerra and her highschool crush, Ross was sweet and I really liked how realistic it was. They both came into the relationship with baggage and knew what that baggage was and that there was not cookie cutter, cherry on top result with them getting together. They had to work through their struggles and in the end, came to a compromise that left both of them happy.

Overall, this is a story for those who enjoy detailed ins and outs of everyday comings and goings. Normally, I’m not one for that but this book achieved it making it appealing to keep reading.
