5.0 out of 5 stars A Collection of Rosamunde Pilcher's Best!, June 25, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: The Blue Bedroom: & Other Stories (Mass Market Paperback)

This collection of short stories is one of my favorites. I have the original hard cover edition (I picked it up for 25 cents at our local library many years ago) and I wouldn't think of parting with it. This is the book I go back to whenever I want a quick but satisfying read or just need to feel "cozy and comfortable". I agree that these stories don't have the depth of Ms. Pilcher's novels, they are still pure Pilcher, with situations and characters with whom the reader can relate. Stories such as "Home for the Day", "Christmas with Miss Cameron" and "An Evening to Remember" will enchant the reader time and time again.

4.0 out of 5 stars A great read., March 28, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: The Blue Bedroom: & Other Stories (Mass Market Paperback)

This is a collection of short stories. While the stories do not have the depth that her longer novels have the stories are quick to read and are great portraits of life and love.

4.0 out of 5 stars Rosamunde Pilcher Magic., December 5, 2007

England's own. "RGK" (Seattle) - See all my reviews

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: The Blue Bedroom: & Other Stories (Mass Market Paperback)

All the stories are good but, "Home for the Day" is the best. When the husband expresses his thoughts at the end it is beautiful. "Because you are my life. The mother of my children, the heart of my house......And I love you." I first read this book years ago. I have read it many times since. Each story is special. I have a copy of this book. The one I just bought is for a gift. I wanted to share it with someone who might also see the beauty I see. I recommend this book highly.
