Off Season Audiobook

" A story of a happily married couple that ends when Cam (the husband) suddenly dies at their Main cabin that had been in Lilly's (the wife) family for many years. She returns to the cabin after his death to face the loss. She experiences his ghost and many memories come flooding back. Even though many may not like the ending, I think she was cleaver to leave the ending up to the reader - I saw three choices. Our book club will discuss the book this June. "

" Mystical and complicated people and places inhabit this book. "

" Feh--gag-- "

" good summer reading. The ending was a OMG surprise "

" Anne Rivers Siddons is one of my favorite go-to authors. Up until the last third of this story I would have given it four stars. While I did get the spin that took place at the end, I thought the journey toward it was pretty drawn out. "

" I got this one from the library, books on CD, and listened to it in the car. It was an entertaining story with a unique ending. Enjoyable. "

" I liked this book. Siddons generational themes are easy to follow. You wonder what is around the next corner of those who are her decendants..... "

" What the hell just happened? "

" This book was okay - it had a quick and surprise ending that I did not see coming and that I am still not sure I understand! "

" This book was hard for me to get into and the ending left a lot to be desired. I feel almost cheated after hanging in there so long. "

" Wonderful story - one of Anne Rivers Siddons best! "

" I liked this more than most of Siddon's books from the last 5 or so years, but it still doesn't come close to my early favorites: Colony and Outer Banks. I might have liked it better with a different ending, but I still enjoyed listening to it. "

" GREAT BOOK, just finished! "

" Good summer read. About first love, secrets, marriage and all that good stuff. Not terribly "deep" but a good read "

" I'm personally biased when it comes to Anne Rivers Siddons. This book was a great one to curl up with during a cold winter night. It's a quick read. "

" I really enjoyed this book as it reminded me a lot of my childhood growing up in New Hampshire. The descriptions of the Maine coast just make me homesick. Interesting ending. "

" Ravelry recommendation "

" I am currently reading and I love it. I always love her books. It takes me to the sea. "

" It's true that I had to read the ending a couple times to understand what happened. I probably would have given the book 5 stars had I not been a little confused. Other than the that, the book was great. "

" 1-26-09. Good book. Enjoyed reading it. I guess I liked it more than I anticipated because I got attached to the characters and was really upset by the end of the book! "

" I listened to this. A good story with an ending that I had to listen to twice to figure out. "

" Great until the last few pages. "

" Surprise ending I did NOT expect. Not sure that I like the ending but what am I gonna do about it. A good read nevertheless. "

" A quick read - evocative, entertaining, a step up from a bodice-ripper. Lots of prose about coastal Maine. "

" Typical "beach book" genre. Anne Rivers Siddons has done better. "

" This book was sort of depressing to me. Others might love it. I tolerated it. "

" Why did I keep reading this book? Really didn't like it that much and the ending just plain pissed me off. "
