The Last Summer at Chelsea Beach

De: Pam Jenoff

Narrado por: Coleen Marlo

Summer 1941

Young Adelia Monteforte flees fascist Italy for America, where she is whisked away to the shore by her well-meaning aunt and uncle. Here she meets and falls for Charlie Connally, the eldest of the four Irish-Catholic boys next door. But all hopes for a future together are soon throttled by the war and a tragedy that hits much closer to home.

Grief-stricken, Addie flees - first to Washington and then to war-torn London - and finds a position at a prestigious newspaper as well as a chance to redeem lost time, lost family...and lost love. But the past always nips at her heels, demanding to be reckoned with. And in a final, fateful choice, Addie discovers that the way home may be a path she never suspected.

A great read!

An engaging story from start to finish. I wish there were more. Different from her other books but still a favorite.

Wasn’t my favorite

I am a huge fan of this author but this book was not my fave

Strong women

This WWII romantic story resonated with me because of the strong main character. There are lessons to be learned from her

Loved it!

Great storyline and I was hooked right away! If you like WWII era storylines this is a great choice

awesome

excellent. I so enjoyed this story and narrator. tops! thanks so much. I will listen again!

Very sad book

This was a good book but it was so sad! Painful to listen to towards the end.

Very good book!!

Another masterpiece by Pam Jenoff, intriguing plot full of twists and turns! Love her books

Not very good

I was expecting a WWII story with some insight, but this is just a silly romance, and not a very well-written one. One dimensional characters, melodramatic plot, not much to like.

Worst of Pam Jenoff I've read so far

This is the 4th Pam Jenoff book I've read. I loved the past 3. This was a hot mess. The main character is an indecisive annoying selfish brat. The storyline just meandered around. I had no idea where we were going. It was a soap opera. The person reading it had a strange voice. I would never recommend this book ever. I can't believe I held out until the end. save your time and don't read.

Review of story

I did not enjoy the content of the story. Unless you are self absorbed and think life should only revolve around you and make everything about yourself?? The only thing I enjoyed was the imitation of Margaret Thatchers voice as her friend. Good one!
