About this product
Product Information
A charming, thoroughly engrossing novel that s the next best thing to being there. People Magazine Hopewell Cottage Little Lost Island, Maine. Old, pretty cottage to rent on a small island. Springwater, blueberries, sea glass. August. So reads an ad on Lottie Wilkes and Rose Arbuthnot s children s preschool bulletin board. When the mothers arrive on the island, they are transformed by the salt air; the breathtaking views; the long, lazy days; and the happy routine of lobster, corn, and cocktails on the wraparound porch. By the time of the late-August blue moon, real life and its complications have finally fallen far, far away. For on this idyllic island they gradually begin to open up: to one another and to the possibilities of lives quite different from the ones they ve been leading. Change can t be that hard, can it? With a cast of endearingly imperfect characters including indie movie star Caroline Dester and an elderly Beverly Fisher, who is recovering from heartbreaking loss and set against the beauty of a gorgeous New England summer, Enchanted August is a sparkling summer debut that brilliantly updates the beloved classic The Enchanted April in a novel of love and reawakening that is simply irresistible."

"A delightful retelling of the enchanting classic. I'm dreaming of blueberries and Maine lobster. We all need a sunny island or castle to which we can run away." -- Helen Simonson , bestselling author of Major Pettigrew's Last Stand "Enchanted August is a true charmer of a novel, written with humor, sensitivity, and a huge amount of heart. I fell in love with the glorious Maine setting and with the quirky and endearing characters who find themselves thrown together there. It's a perfect summer read--for any time of the year." -- Will Schwalbe , author of the New York Times bestseller The End of Your Life Book Club "Enchanted August is as lovely and salty as an afternoon on an island in Maine.

AOK. Item as described, reasonable condition (as described), excellent price, reasonable packing and shipping time, no problems. Thanks. (Sorry, I don't do star ratings when some are automatic, as it's unfair to buyers to have eBay pre-empt any of the scores. You should complain to eBay, as your star ratings would have been very high.) I can't rate the product until I read it. It's unfair for eBay to require a product rating in order to send feedback! The guys at eBay are heavily into control.
