Screenshot of a five star review on Waterstones website for "A Spring Marrying" by Jon Rosebank. “Perfect for a book group as there are so many angles to debate!” I loved this book! I was completely enveloped into Jimmy's world of Devon around 1912. He is a fisherman and part of a crew that sails the smack boats for a living. The historical detail is amazing, and so well researched; the world is so completely believable. Jimmy falls in love and struggles to manage the relationships on land, whereas at sea, he knows his role and is confident. The book's start throws you straight into a quandary with different accounts of a death and from then on, it is a compelling read. There are a lot of characters, but not too many, each with a rich history, and intertwining skeletons in the closet. You felt part of the community, one that grew up together and grew old together. I stayed up until silly o'clock reading it and pick it up first thing the next day as I wanted to know what happened! Jon's writing draws you in - you have to read every word, but they are all worth it. After finishing I was so glad to have people around me to discuss and debate the story - perfect for a book group.
Four star review says, “A good read” An enjoyable story - immersive, with unexpected twists.
Well, I just noticed we have got a four star review along with 27 five star reviews. 😀
It looks a bit suspicious when all the reviews are five stars. 😂

Lovely afternoon in the #SouthHams #Devon #Cycling
The Martins are settling in to their new home and enjoy a lovely walk in the countryside with the dogs. Springtime in Devon is lovely.

Better forecast for the coming weekend, for a walk with beautiful coastal views, access to lovely beaches and probably the finest view of the #Devon town Salcombe. Great pub in East Prawle too. Details at tinyurl.com/s4jf4tfy
