Sheltering Rain

De: Jojo Moyes

Narrado por: Aoife McMahon

From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Me Before You, the basis for the major motion picture, comes the touching, unforgettable story of three generations of Irish women faced with the fundamental truths of love, duty, and the unbreakable bond that unites mothers and daughters.

Estranged from her mother since she ran away from her rural Irish home as a young woman, Kate swore a future oath that she'd always be a friend to her daughter, Sabine. But history has a way of repeating itself, and Kate now faces an ever-widening chasm between herself and her daughter. With Sabine about to make her own journey to Ireland to see the grandmother Kate abandoned, Kate is left wondering how they ever made it here, and what she can do to close the gap between them.

For Joy, seeing her granddaughter is a dream come true. After the painful separation from Kate, she's looking forward to having time with Sabine. Yet almost as soon as the young woman arrives, the lack of common ground between them deflates her enthusiasm. And when Sabine's impetuous, inquisitive nature forces Joy to face long-buried secrets from her past, she realizes that perhaps it's time to finally heal old wounds.

Excellent story

This was a great book. Second one I’ve listen to by this author. I really love how well the characters were developed and the storyline kept me wanting to keep listening.

A good easy read.

Loved the characters and how the story unfolded all the twists and turns of their lives. Life is so much more than what others let you see.

Horses

Not her best book, did not care for narrator’s voice & story was slow to develop

Disappointed

Slow pace, immature protagonists. Very disappointing coming from Jojo Moyes. Judging by the date it was written, this looks like the publisher is just trying to capitalize on her later works and success.

All heart.

Love the characters and I only wish I could know them longer! Maybe kilkarian house part deux??
