I've never been that extreme myself but I didn't leave the neighborhood or go indoors for MONTHS in 2020 even after things opened up a bit more. I can relate to being shy with noisy neighbors who drive one crazy and being at wit's end to get them to stop without talking to them. Whenever a new Jenny Colgan (or Milly Johnson) book comes out I promise myself that I will savor it THIS time instead of inhaling it like a greedy child. AND as always, I stayed up until 1:00am totally devouring it until I was finished reading. Now, a month later after finishing listening to Beth O'Leary's "The Road Trip", I got to listen to this awesome story. Whether you are new to Jenny Colgan's books or have read previous in this series, it can easily be read as a standalone, as the main focal characters are brand new!

When she is given the opportunity to move to a remote tidal island off the Cornish Coast, Marisa Rossi decides some peace and quiet might be just what she needs. Sunrise and sunset times, civil twilight start and end times as well as solar noon, and day length for every day of November in Saltburn-by-the-Sea. Rueben and Kerensa are kind of throw away characters. They're obnoxious, more than ever now they have a kid. Rueben still throws money away like it's grass and Kerensa tries to keep up with the horrid mothers and rich witches. Neither of them set a good example for their kid. No wonder he's a spoiled brat. At first Lowin reminded me of Dudley Dursley but by the time his party rolled around, I could see he just wanted to be a normal kid. Lowin is rude to the twin who worship him. I understand. I've seen it go both ways with hero worship and acceptance or hero worship and rejection of the younger child. Lowin is too young to understand how to be fake nice to babies.Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions.

I found a few inconsistencies in this book. Every time a new character was introduced, they were first introduced by name without explanation. Then later the character was introduced with name + description which was unnecessary at that point. Lowin, Rueben and Kerensa's son, is introduced as being "almost 8" when it's nearly spring. Later it says his birthday is on Christmas which means he just turned 8. His birthday party, in summer, is his HALF birthday party. Jayden's wife is introduced as Florrie first and then later Flora. The repetition of character introduction could have been trimmed along with lots of subplot to make the book a bit shorter.These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment. Retreating further and further from normal life, she moves to the end of the earth—the remote tidal island of Mount Polbearne, at the foot of Cornwall, hoping for peace and solitude, whilst carrying on her job as a registrar, dealing with births, weddings, and deaths, even as she feels life is passing her by. And Marisa is struggling with life generally at the moment since the death of her Nonno, and her ex landlord decided he doesn't want someone who has lost their way living with him, so suggests she moves to these rather out of the way cottages in Mount Polbearne, and with no other options she does just that. I recommend this book to those who like women's fiction whether or not they've read the previous books. Wat was het een aangename verrassing dat Jenny Colgan haar lezers nog een keer meeneemt naar Mount Polbearne voor een nieuw avontuur, want door de vorige boeken ben ik een beetje gaan houden van dit prachtige getijdeneiland en zijn bewoners. Het leven is er niet altijd gemakkelijk, maar iedereen zorgt voor elkaar, houdt de moed erin en gebroken harten kunnen er worden geheeld. Een boek van haar voelt voor mij vaak als een warme deken en dat is nu niet anders, ook dit vierde deel in de serie over de kleine bakkerij is een ontzettend fijne, sprankelende feelgood!

And although initially I did think they were perhaps the main focus of the book, they are present the whole time and we do get chapters focusing on them, but the main character is Marisa who is new to the area. The day length shortens by 1 hour, 38 minutes over the course of November 2023, from 9 hours, 26 minutes on the first day to 7 hours, 48 minutes on the last in Saltburn-by-the-Sea, England.

Tomorrow

Marisa's recovery from anxiety seems a bit too pat. Yes, she does seek counseling and there are steps she goes through, but from seeing friends and family struggle with social anxiety and depression, I felt her journey was just too linear.
