"Loved this entire series"
These were really sweet novels. The author does a wonderful job depicting the secret world children build away from adults, the love of place that runs through generations for a family home, and bittersweet pain involved in having a "difficult" parent and living with the choices we make to escape that person....

"Excellent sequel to "Amberwell""
Would you listen to Summerhills again? Why?Years ago, I read as many of DE Stevenson's books as I could find but they are
What was one of the most memorable moments of Summerhills?In almost all of DE Stevenson's books, there is a moment when someone realizes they have been in love with someone else for a long time without knowing it, and this book is no exception.
What about Lesley Mackie???s performance did you like?Lesley has a beautiful voice. Every word is clear and her accents are just enough to distinguish the different characters without going
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?There are a few very romantic moments that did make me cry.
Any additional comments?This is a sequel to Amberwell, so it's best to read it after the first book, although it can stand on its own (all the characters and previous situations are explained). Also, I believe that DE Stevenson was related to Robert Louis Stevenson (a cousin?) so she came from a family of writers, and it shows.

"Wonderful followup."
I very much enjoyed listening to this sequel to Amberwell. Lesley Mackie's voice is perfect for the series. I very much enjoyed following the continued lives of the Aryton family and their friends. I love books about Scotland and this one is high on my list.
