Download Colony Low Price Audiobook

" This was a perfect airline/beach/traveling book. Interesting story, interesting characters but no trauma inflicted on the reader! "

" This is a very emotional and powerful book. Siddons is a wonderful author. "

" This is a wonderful novel in which the protagonist really captures the reader's sympathy and interest. The story development is wonderful. A real page turner that will carry you through to the very end. Great story telling! "

" Just fluffy, smutty goodness. Take with on your next trip to the beach. "

" One of my all time favorites, it SO reminds me of the place in Maine where I spend the summers of my life! It also made for a great book club discussion. "

" First book I had ever read of hers and it still sticks with me a one of my most recommended reads. Some of her other books are good. But this was her best. "

" Second time reading this book and it's just as odd as the first time... but I just can't seem to put the dang thing down. "

" One of her best books. "

" I kept getting the feeling I'd read it before, but it's a good family drama that plays out over the years. Not very realistic, IMO, but I'm sure there are people who summer in places like this. A nice, engaging read. "

" Colony follows the life of one woman, Maude, and her husband's family each summer that they spend at their summer retreat in Maine.the whole point of the story seemed to be that women need to be strong because men mess up. Super annoying ! "

" A great vacation read "

" I really loved this book. It is a slow-paced family drama. Long book. Worth the time! "

" Might be my favorite Anne Rivers Siddons book so far. Multigenerational story explores the complex relationships within families, between friends, and within communities. Beautifully drawn characters, well paced plot, and surprise ending make it a winner! "

" Amazing story, kept me hooked til the end! "

" Great summer read....light vacation read "

" This is one of my favorite books. I spent a few summers in Maine near to where this book is set, but really, it makes me think of my own long family history in Cape Cod. It's a must-read! "

" A multi-generational saga that went on and on. Too many unanswered plot questions for me in this one. It was long and I can't believe I hung in and finished it. Also, it's pretty explicit which surprised me because the author is an old lady! (ick!) "

" Probably my favorite of all her books "

" Again not great literature, just a wonderful story. And as a lover of Maine, I enjoyed it's setting and characters "

" Same review for all of her books. "

" This sooooo reminded me of many situations I found myself in in the past and would find myself in in the future. It is about love and acceptance and I should read it again. For me, it is her best book. "

" This was the first of Anne Rivers Siddons novels I read years ago and I enjoyed it just as much this time....maybe more. She is a fabulous author...and on to another! "

" I liked this book a lot. Takes place on coast in Maine. A saga, you feel like you know these people since it takes place over a woman's lifetime and you follow her life from the time she is a newly wed to the time of her death when she's in her 80s. "

" I can't even believe I finished this train wreck of a book. I think after the first then second stupid thing happened I wanted to see how ridiculous it could get. Weak men, heartbreak and pain at the summer house yet everyone keeps coming back for more. "

" I loved this book. Have re-read at least 5 times. "

" First ARS I ever read and I recall it being one of her best. "

" Read every year! "

" As I recall, this book kept me interested in the characters. I was also partial to the setting. "

" I kept getting the feeling I'd read it before, but it's a good family drama that plays out over the years. Not very realistic, IMO, but I'm sure there are people who summer in places like this. A nice, engaging read. "

" Siddons is one of my favorite authors and this is one of her best. "

" Read this book in 2008. Good page turner. "

" Might be my favorite Anne Rivers Siddons book so far. Multigenerational story explores the complex relationships within families, between friends, and within communities. Beautifully drawn characters, well paced plot, and surprise ending make it a winner! "

" another book I have been carrying around and now it can go.... "

" Colony follows the life of one woman, Maude, and her husband's family each summer that they spend at their summer retreat in Maine.the whole point of the story seemed to be that women need to be strong because men mess up. Super annoying ! "

" This was a generational saga set in the south and focused on a relationship between a wife and her dysfunctional matriarchal mother in law. The story had enjoyable complexities. I usually don't read books of this type, but I am so glad I did. This was my first Siddons book, and I am a fan. "

" This is the first book I've read by this author and I really enjoyed it! A great three generation family saga. "

" Not my favorite, but love her writing "

" Ready for some "lighter fare" I pulled out this chestnut. After I started it I remember that I had read it probably 15 years ago and liked it, but couldn't remember many details, so I read it again. I classify it as a "chick book" and put it in the beach bag. "
