When Chicky decides to take an old decaying mansion, Stone House, and turn it into a restful place for a holiday by the sea, the town thinks she is crazy. She is helped by Rigger (a bad boy turned good who is handy around the place) and her niece Orla (a whiz at business). Finally the first week of paying guests arrive. You will laugh and cry as you spend the week with this odd group who share their secrets and might even have some of their dreams come true.

Add a CommentLoved all the characters, and it all came together at the end too!
This book was well worth the wait, even if it was weeks and weeks. As always, her stories are interesting and engaging with characters that you feel for and want to know more about. I also found a smaller book by her in paperback, that too was a good read.
really liked this last book by Ms. Binchy. the stories within the story were interesting, some better than others. the only character in the book I wanted to know more of was Rigger's mother. I wanted her to come and stay week at the house. I loved Tara Road most of all her books. She will be missed by all lovers of books.
I'm still waiting to read this one, but have loved many of her books. She will be missed. Although not romance, Tana French is another wonderful Irish writer. She writes a good psychological suspense/mystery. If you're looking for books set in Ireland, give her a try!
I truly enjoy Ms. Binchy's writing, she is very insightful about human nature. There are also teachable moments in most, if not all of her novels.
A home, Stone House, is transformed into a place for guests on the west coast of Ireland. Great storytelling and characters! I will miss this author!
May be Maeve Binchy's best book. How sad there will be no more...
Another great read from Maeve Binchy. Her characters are always so full and complex and likable even when they are not so much. I will miss reading new stories from her. Love you, Maeve! Rest in peace.
Loved the story with its humor and storyline with characters. Will enjoy reading more of her books....she will continue to live through her story telling. RIP Maeve Binchy.
As with all her books I read it very quickly which is easy to do. However I was just a bit disappointed in the format even though all the characters came together in a satisfactory way. Still I'm happy to have read it - she will be greatly missed.
