Winter Solstice by Rosamunde Pilcher
4.0
This was a comfortable, cozy read. While not devoid of conflict and sadness, it was a lovely uplifting story about grief and belonging. Plus it is set in Scotland, so how could I not love it? I can testify to the healing power of the Scottish highlands and the warmth and kindness of the Scottish people.
The only downside is that I didn’t really connect deeply with any of the characters. They were all well developed and there was no dearth of ones to choose from! But none of them really resonated with me or my own experience. They were all wonderful characters, though. Like the home that is the central fixture of the story, this book was inviting and has room for all sorts.
