Absolutely loved the characters and the story. Enjoyed every minute of it. And the ending was perfect!

This author is so great to read! Her books are mysterious, exciting, funny and so very entertaining. I have read several of her books and would highly recommend all of them.

I have never read a book so hard to follow, it’s not my cup of tea. Such a dysfunctional group of people and poor Sophia seemed to be the sane one who wants a husband and child but she can’t even get that. Then at the end you still don’t know what happens.

Each character in this book was fully developed and became such real people. The story was well-written and unexpectedly perfect. I savored each and every page. Every twist and turn was a surprise. The title is excellent, of course. I also liked the reference to Eva Cassidy’s songs because they’re some of my favorites. She died too young. Overall, I’m deeply thankful for how wonderful this book made me feel!

Scribbly Gum Island in New South Wales, Australia is home to the Munro baby who was abandoned years ago. Her parents, Frank and Alice Munro disappeared. Two teenaged sisters take the child in and raise her as their own. The Island becomes a destination to see the Munro house and hear details about the mysterious night that the baby was found alone, a kettle on to boil and a marble cake just out of the oven. Now things are changing and the four generations still connected to the island may be ready to share the full story. The story centers on Sophie who is the ex-fiancé of a grandson. Her life intertwines with many in the extended family and she moves to the island. Will she be the catalyst to a new openness in the family? I enjoyed learning about the characters in the family. There are enough hints to keep you interested in solving the mystery, but I did not predict the real story before it was revealed. A fun read!

I waited expectantly for a reveal on the “mystery” going back 73 years, only to discover the ridiculous truth. What follows for every character was just as dumb and not even a little believable or relatable! Started out liking where it was going, finished feeling so let down!

It kills me to pay for a book and not read it. I’ve tried getting thru this book for days and it’s just sooooo boring. I’m waiting for something to happen - anything - to keep me reading and I just can’t. I’m abandoning it about 1/4 way thru!

One of my favorite LM books! Couldn’t put it down
