The blurb:
The third instalment in Emma Burstall's heartwarming series,
set in the Cornish seaside village of Tremarnock.
Bramble Challoner has had a very normal
upbringing. She lives in a semi in the suburbs of London with her parents and
works at the call centre down the road. She still goes out with the boy she met
at school. At weekends they stay in and watch films on the telly and sometimes
hold hands. Bramble is dying for an adventure.
So when her very grand grandfather, Lord Penrose,
dies, leaving his huge, rambling house in Cornwall to her, Bramble packs her
bags immediately, dragging along her best friend Katie. The sleepy village of
Tremarnock had better be ready for its newest residents...
My Opinion:
*Book provided by the publisher in exchange for an
honest review*
The Tremarnock Summer is the third book in the
Tremarnock series and actually my first visit to Tremarnock.
Bramble Challoner enjoys hanging out with the
boy she met at school. Staying in and watching films on the weekend, working
during the week; but she wants more excitement and adventure in her life. Her
grand grandfather dies and leaves her his house in Cornwall. Bramble is all up
for it and goes to Cornwall with her best friend Katie.
They meet all these other chracters and there
are a lot of things happening. At times there was a bit too much going on for me
and I struggled a bit with the pace of the story. I also felt like there was a
big mixture of characters and sometimes that was a bit confusing. I would
definitely suggest reading the first two books oft he series, to get to know
the characters and to have a better overview.
Emma Burstall’s writing style is descriptive,
heartwarming and engaging. The setting is beautiful and together with the story
it just creates a wonderful flair and atmosphere.
