The Guest House by the Sea

De: Faith Hogan

Narrado por: Aoife McMahon, Flora Montgomery

People come to the guest house for fresh air and views across the Atlantic. But if they're lucky, they might just leave with the second chance they didn't know they needed...

Esme has run the guest house for as long as anyone in Ballycove can remember. But in her declining years, her sight is failing, and when she has a fall on the eve of the summer season, she is forced to take a back seat for the first time in her life.

From her chair in the entry hall, not much passes Esme by. There's Cora, the wife visiting indefinitely... without her husband; Niamh, the city professional with a life-changing decision to make; and Phyllie, the grandmother whose family is slipping away from her.

Esme's guests provide the color that helps her keep her grip on the world. All of them have something they want to escape–or to hold on to. But can Esme help them find their way before the summer is over?

From bestselling Irish writer Faith Hogan comes an uplifting new story about discovering love, friendship and the healing power of the Irish sea air. It will charm fans of Sheila O'Flanagan, Heidi Swain and Susanne O'Leary.

Charming Quaint and Delightful

This charming novel had so many words of wisdom and life lessons for all. The character development was incredible. The narrator was one of the reasons we chose this book and she didn’t disappoint. Looking forward to the next one by this author and narrator!

A guest house we all want to visit

A sweet story that takes you on a journey to the quaint seaside Guest House. The Irish accents make the audiobook a delight to listen to. Loved the characters.

Delightful

Narrated beautifully with great story telling.
The characters are funny, well developed and nicely interwoven

Disappointing for this author

I really liked the book shop and thought I’d try this, but I didn’t really believe the characters. Or the way it wrapped up rather simply

Another darling Ballycove tale!

Love the Willows and its guests! Genuine personalities woven into varied and entertaining story lines made for fun listening
