The Girl on the Cliff: The compelling family drama from the author of The Seven Sisters series

Je ne me lasse pas de lire Lucinda RYLEY. Une fois qu'on a commencé, on ne peut lâcher le livre. J'en suis au 18ème d'affilé de la même auteure. ça ne m'est jamais arrivée.

I love this author. I’m reading it right now and thoroughly enjoying it. I got hooked on her seven sisters series which also was excellent.

A very nice book, it keeps us captivated till the end. Nice issues and a surprising conclusion. In every of Lucinda's books, the characters are very touching, we get very attached to them and are touch by everything that happens to them. A great story giving us the opportunity to discover a little of Ireland and it's peoples.

Good story - nice read

Overall, I enjoyed this novel. The story is told both in the past and the present to illustrate beautifully the ties that bind two families together. I really loved the sections from the past and would have been happy to spend most of my time there. I wasn't so keen on the story from the present, however. I thought the present narrative was quite predictable and contrived. I also didn't love any of the present day characters that much, including the narrator, Aurora. And I agree with at least one other reviewer who pointed out the odd language used by the American character, Matt. I know the writer is British and she is using what she thinks is an American dialect, but it got rather annoying--particularly the constant use of "real" in place of "really" (e.g., "that is real heavy"). It especially bugged me because other words said by this character were distinctly British, such as "torch" for flashlight. I wish the editing had been a bit tighter. Overall, though, it was an enjoyable story. Nothing life changing but entertaining none the less.
