Jane has been city-based and career-driven but when her fourteen year old daughter Natalie falls in with the wrong crowd at school in Manhattan, she and Andrew decide to try country living. However Jane has trouble getting used to the silence and solitude of a remote village. Natalie hates her new school, and eleven-year-old Ben struggles academically. Only eight-year-old Merrie enjoys country life. Has Jane made a horrible mistake? The Hattons have bought the old vicarage in the village. When Jane finds a scrap of shopping list, she grows curious about Alice, the vicar’s wife who lived there years before. As we follow the twin narratives of Jane, in the present, and Alice in the 1930s we discover that both are on a journey to discover their true selves, and to address their deepest fears.

Mehso-so

I just finished reading a book. This is the first book I finished this month. I started it at the end of June. I have 2 books from this series on my shelf that I won from Goodreads giveaways. I will be getting rid of them. After I read the first 4 chapters of this book, I had a feeling I wasn‘t going to like this book but I thought it was going to get better so I kept reading it. I feel like I wasted my time reading this book.
