The Prince of Nantucket Audiobook

" This was another book I picked up as a summer beach read. Read it very quickly (small book). Not sure yet what I think of it. Enjoyable, but a National Bestseller? not sure. "

" Three stars - this was a "beach Book" (read it in an afternoon and consider it a love story.) Teddy, an L.A. lawyer has to learn to re-love his estranged 13 year old daughter and his estranged mother who is fading away with Alzheimer's. I enjoyed a fast read after plowing through Susan Vreeland's Luncheon of the Boating Party. "

" Another good short read. I typically read books that are from a women's perceptive so it's good to read something from a guys perspective once in a while. "

" Was heading out on the road and grabbed this from the library shelf. Way too many "issues" being tackled in one book so that none were explored well and was so very predictable. "

" Easy, quick and fun "

" A good summer read. Rather predictable. "

" very predictable and contrived. a politician returning to his childhood home to help his mother with alzheimers. not even good beach reading. "

" This was the story about a man (Ted) in a calif. politial race, that comes to visit his ailing mother on Nantucket. His sister is the primary caretaker, and she guilts Ted into helping while she goes on vacation. Ted brings his estranged teenage daughter along - a publicist thinks it will be a great story. "

" Audio Book. Not a book I would recommend to anyone -very predictable- and there is not point rewriting what other reviewers have already said. "

" Interesting, light read. "

" I really liked this one. Another of the library's readers choice nominees. It was a good story. "

" This book was not literary genius. If you like books like the "Notebook" then you will like this one. It is about a man who finds himself on a life path that turned him into something far from his childhood dreams. He does lot of soul searching. I found it to be a good "beach novel". "

" This is a quick read. I read this book in one night. "

" A very easy summer read. "

" seems to run a vague parallel to the Kennedy's "

" A good quick read that has the main character, Teddy Mathison, regaining his focus on family over the climb up the social and political ladder. The character development is simple, the storyline easy to follow, making for a good read at the beach or travels to spring break. "

" this should be made into a movie!!!1 i vote richard gere play the leading male ted!!! "

" Boring -- like a bad Danielle Steele novel! "

" An easy, light read that can give you much to consider in your family relationships. Apart from the cheesy ocean romance scene... I enjoyed it. "

" It was an easy and quick "beach read". I enjoyed reading it but it wasn't a book with much depth or suspence. Pretty predictable. But overall worth the read. "

" Perfect, quick read with the ideal made-for-tv-movie plot. "

" I can't tell you how close I came to not continuing with the book. In the end, I'm glad I didn't as it made for a touching story. During the first third of the book, the protagonist's attitude and that of his daughter's, made me just plain angry. "

" This book for me was about letting go of the past in order to move forward in your life. I loved the characters and the twisted family relationships and I even got a little romance which I love. "

" Great book. Easy read but nice story to it! "

" Quick read, nice story about a man reconciling with his mother before she dies. Along the way he tries to connect with his teenage daughter. "

" Somewhat predictable. But a beautiful, tear-jerker in the line of "The Notebook". California Senate-hopeful reluctantly spends a week in Nantucket with his mother, a brilliant artist disappearing into the haze of Alzheimer's, and his troubled teenage daughter. "
