A review by dommdy
Windfallen by Jojo Moyes

2.0

I’m not sure how I feel about this book. I was invested in the characters in the first part of the story, much less so the later timeline. It seemed an abrupt switch to me. I never got a feeling for Daisy, even with descriptions of her working I never got a sense of her design abilities.
I wanted to know more about Guy and Celia and Lottie during the years missing from the first timeline, not sure if that’s the right term. I would’ve enjoyed knowing more about the fate of the artists and eccentrics that lived in Arcadia at that time.
Maybe it’s just me, but the story seemed disjointed and I didn’t care much about any of the characters in the end. I was glad it was over.
