The Butterfly Room

Product Information

A multi generational tale that was sweet and romantic and while it wasn’t on the edge of your seat suspense or intrigue it was charming and readable but not one for my favorites shelf. Con una pluma muy amena y sencilla la autora nos lleva por la vida de la familia de Posy, sus idas y vueltas, ganancias y perdidas, conflictos y amores desde la segunda guerra hasta el 2016, contada como nos tiene acostumbrada Lucinda en dos tiempos, pasado y presente. This epic saga was beautifully written with enticingly mysterious and cleverly intertwining storylines’ It has all the ingredients I expect of a family saga: a big old crumbling family home, mystery, sibling rivalry, romance, secrets, lies . . . But the biggest secret? I never could have guessed what it would be, and it left me stunned.

It’s covered in barbed wire and mines. Do you remember when I explained to you about what happened in Southwold last month?’ Much of the story is set in Southwold, Suffolk. Do you have a personal connection to the town, or is there something else that inspired you to write about it?I'm Kristin. I always have a book with me wherever I go! I am married and have two chocolate labs - Maddie and Chloe. In addition to reading, I also enjoy yoga and walking - I am a big audio fan and love listening to audio books while out walking! We follow Posy from childhood to retirement – which phase of her life did you most enjoy writing about? Well, I couldn't ask, because he wasn't here, but I had to trust and believe there was a very good reason for the murders in our butterfly kingdom. I love multi-generational sagas. They are such a great break from all the thrillers I love reading and this one came at the perfect time. I was able to lose myself in Posy’s world and what a story it was. Starting when she was young and then jumping to when she is almost 70, I immediately found myself engrossed in this story. Posy has not had the most happy of childhoods and even later in life, she has encountered a few obstacles. Now she is nearing the end of her life and trying to decide whether she should scale down. Daily Mail Captivating . . . This multi-generational tale is a poignant yet uplifting novel that strikes just the right balance with its tone and characters.

The Butterfly Room by Lucinda Riley | Goodreads

Sorry can’t find anything positive to say. It feels like the author must have had a 1940’s public school posh toffee nosed English upbringing and that they’ve tried to drag that into present day.....do people really talk like this nowadays? “Hello darling” “ I love you darling girl”. Be warned - you will need tissues. Close to the end I found myself sobbing violently, not pretty crying with tears rolling silently down my cheeks, but the full on waterworks as I railed against the injustice of fate. But I finished with a sigh of pleasure and a smile of satisfaction. Como de costumbre entrañables siempre las narraciones de Lucinda, ya puede ser la historia dura pero la sutileza que utiliza siempre lo convierte en algo amable de leer.My thoughts:It’s no secret that I am a huge Lucinda Riley fan. I’ve read almost all her books to date, and those that I haven’t I plan to soon. I always find myself completely engaged in her stories, falling in love with her characters and swept up in their lives and this one was no different. My problem with the book lies within the toxic relationships (wth is Amy doing with Sam??) and the secrets that shouldn't have been secrets that drove me mad!!! And then solving problems with champagne and money...erm...no. Gardening and Posy’s work at Kew are central threads of the story. Are you a keen gardener yourself or is there another reason why you decided to include these themes? This epic saga was beautifully written with enticingly mysterious and cleverly intertwining storylines that were threaded with a few heavy secrets and shattering tragedies that this grievously wily author used to taunt and tease me while brutally dangling them rather barbarously out of my reach. I was invested and immersed in the complexities of the characters’ overlapping and oddly compelling family dynamics after being bewitched and pleasantly enthralled by Posy’s early childhood history and interactions with her beloved father. But there was something not quite right about her household and I had numerous suspicions and licentious theories, many of which were incorrect, but I wasn’t too far afield as the long-held secrets had been scandalous in their time as well as heartbreaking. This was my first experience reading this master-storyteller and where have I been, she has written thirty books already? Full of her trademark mix of unforgettable characters and heart-breaking secrets, The Butterfly Room is a spellbinding, multi-generational story from Lucinda Riley, bestselling author of the Seven Sisters series.

The Butterfly Room by Lucinda Riley Book Review: The Butterfly Room by Lucinda Riley

Lucinda Riley is the writer of the wildly popular THE SEVEN SISTERS series, which I have not yet read. In retrospect, I wish I would have started there as my introduction to this author rather than this standalone. THE BUTTERFLY ROOM is a fine (longish???) novel, but I think my problem was with its characters. They did things to each other, and kept things from each other, that felt false and unrelatable. En el presente Posy se enfrenta a la difícil decisión de si vender la propiedad de su casa familiar “Admiral house” ya que al ser una mansión con un gran terreno requiere mucho mantenimiento y ella no cuenta con el dinero necesario ni con la fortaleza física para acometer las tareas necesarias. Asimismo durante este periodo Posy se reencuentra con un antiguo amor que acabó bruscamente y sin que ella llegara a conocer el motivo. ¿Podrá a sus 70 años volver a sentir las mariposas en el estómago? ¿Sabrá finalmente por qué se quebró su historia de amor?. No había leído nada de esta autora, tengo ganas de leer la saga de las siete hermanas, aunque preferí empezar por este que es autoconclusivo, imagino que no he acertado mucho con la elección ya que es una autora que en general tiene muy buenas reseñas.
