Gina Mitchell's Reviews > Boomerville at Ballymegille

I have not read a Caroline James book before but can assure you this won’t be my last. The characters are lively, well-written, and jump off the page. The storyline is full of turns and dips but never difficult to follow.

After the death of her husband, Hattie returns to Boomerville. She’s just in time to help her friend Jo in her quest to open a new Boomerville resort in the southern part of Ireland.

With a cast of characters, some old and some new, hilarity ensues as everyone pitches in to get the new resort up and running.

A few darker themes are lurking in the background, such as spousal abuse, murder, mental instability, and drug usage. These are treated with respect.

Overall, this quick read is entertaining, and it’s quite a joy to see characters of a ‘certain age’ presented as vibrant, sexy, hilarious, and full of life.

I read this book for a Rachel’s Random Resources book tour and have written an honest, unbiased review.
