I really enjoyed this collection of short stories. Almost every one of them left me wanting to know the next chapter in that woman's life but were satisfying. Very well written and a good book for lunchtime/breaktime reading when you don't have oodles of time to read.

a collection of 22 stories... They leave a lasting impression on your mind. Each story is based on a particular area in London -- Notting Hill Gate, Holland Park, King's Cross, etc. -- and the stories, from a compulsive shoplifter to a woman's affair with a married man, are poignant, lucid and memorable

A great summer read! Maeve Binchy, as always entertaining - this seemed like a series of short stories, with a cohesive undercurrent. Highly recommended!

Maeve Binchy is one of my favorite authors. A bit different from some of her other books. Briefly introduces several characters instead of indepth on a few. But still a good book.

This is a book of 22 stories about people from Ireland moving to London. As usual, you get caught up into the lives of her characters.

This is a good Maeve Binchy novel - not my favorite of hers - but still a good read.
22 short stories by Maeve Binchy about relationships in an Irish setting. This author is always good.
Good Binchy read....22 short (about thirty pages or so) stories... set in Ireland mostly...entertaining. :)
