The Long Way Home: A Novel Audiobook

" OK story. Fun, quick read. Read it while I was sick for a light and easy read. Likely won't be recommending this one. Didn't think the story was that great nor the characters too believable. Reminded me of a cheap soap opera. "

" This book is poorly written, like I'm watching some pathetic american film. It is like the writer took some boring scenario and copy paste it and publish as a book. Dialogues are just... nah, characters also. It is about reach people and their "problems". Wasting of time. I'm reading it only because I want to learn English so I thought that some easy book would be good for the start but it was a mistake, I just got annoyed. "

" Like many others I was picked this up because of it being set in Scotland but the author did a horrible job making you feel like it was a "special" place - it sounded dull and gray and for all that was mentioned about Scotland, it could have been set anywhere. Very disappointing in that respect. The twist was suspenseful which kept me reading. Jumping around in times was just confusing - it was better at the end when it just followed one timeline. Just o.k. I wouldn't read another of his books though. "

" An anglophile, I love novels that largely take place in the Isles: Scotland, in this case. Has a twist that keeps suspended knowledge important to the healing of relationships. "

" Good story. Well written. Overall a real pleasure of a book. "

" Easy read. Good Story. Could have been 3.5 stars. "

" Some mystery in this story of a woman's relationship with her stepfather. Is her childhood friend now friend or foe? It all turns out well in the end. "

" Families and inheritances always make for interesting stories. "

" This is a well-told story with a twist at the end that made it worth reading. I enjoyed all of R. Pilcher's books, and her sons are not bad either. "

" Nice read but I predict it will be rather forgettable. Nothing here to write home about. "

" If you like Rosamunde Pilcher's books, you will likely enjoy her son's writing. Robin Pilcher's books are a little reminiscent of his mother's inthat a large part of his action takes place in Scotland and his characters, young and old, are believable. "

" Loved this book right from the beginning to the very end. I would highly recommend it. Claire Barclay is the main character and you meet her as a child through to her adult life. "

" Good, not great. Predictable and not a single murder- and sometimes, you just need no murders, ya know? "

" Good book, started slow but then picked up "

" The author kept you wondering who is the good guy and who is the bad guy right up to the end... and I'm not telling. "

" Not too bad of a story. Found it really picked up the second half of the book. "

" Enjoyed, though the ending seemed way more convoluted than necessary and somewhat unbelievable. The "English" terms were... interesting. "

" Sweet story. He does not write as well as his mother, but he always tells a nice Scottish story with a little twist. "

" Nice story. Characters well fleshed out. I had figured out a couple things, but there was still an element of surprise. "

" I love reading Rosemunde Pilcher's books. I think I own every one of them. This book, by her son, was in the same caliber. Always makes me want a hot cup of tea and a boiled egg. "

" A true Pilcher story. Very very good, hard to put down. Highly recommended to read. "

" Fairly good. First Robin Pilcher I have read. I am a big fan of his mother, so I thought I would give him a try. Probably will read more books by him. "

" Not so great - you can skip it. "

" The plot is engaging though often far-fetched, but the characters are flat and there is no exploration of the characters emotional world. Though one would want to turn the pages (in "read" it in audio format) to find out the ending of the book, having reached there, one would find it so empty. "

" I loved this book. It is an easy , fast read and yes, I admit it, with a happy ending and justice prevails:) I seem to always be looking for that!!! Enjoy it! "

" Good story. Well written. Overall a real pleasure of a book. "

" A very satisfying read! If you're a fan of authors Maeve Binchy or Rosamunde Pilcher, you will enjoy this book. I enjoyed the Scotland setting, and the surprise ending. "

" An anglophile, I love novels that largely take place in the Isles: Scotland, in this case. Has a twist that keeps suspended knowledge important to the healing of relationships. "

" A loosely plotted novel, which falls far short of any real impact or depth. "

" I did not realize that this was Rosamunde Pilcher's son, but always enjoyed her books set in Scotland and this was no different. A bit trite, but enjoyed it none the less. "

" Really good book, a little mushy though "

" I love reading Rosemunde Pilcher's books. I think I own every one of them. This book, by her son, was in the same caliber. Always makes me want a hot cup of tea and a boiled egg. "
