Search - Off Season

Not my favorite Anne Rivers Siddons, probably because it's set in Maine, not South Carolina. But, as usual, her descriptive passages are lovely-she has a way of talking about the light in particular and nature in general that I always enjoy. This novel spends a great deal of time on the "growing-up" of the main characters, instead of using the events of their adult lives to move the dramatic action along and I guess I missed the adult dialogue that is usually the focus of her stories. It was a good read and I'd recommend it for any ARS fan, but I'm going back to re-read some of the SC books and maybe a Pat Conroy or two!

I have loved all of this author's books. I really enjoyed this one also, but the ending seemed a little contrived.

Love Anne Siddons-------------Loved this book

Anne Rivers Siddons has been one of my favorite authors for many years, and this lastest book did not disappoint. I have to say that it took me awhile to get into the characters and the story, but once I did, I had a hard time putting it down. As a cat lover, I absolutely adored Silas! Another great read by Ms. Siddons.
