Story
The Spanish House is a mixture of designs, Georgian, Gothic and Moorish, as if whoever started it had simply got bored. It has long been known as an architectural folly to locals, and is now nearly derelict to boot. When its reclusive owner dies intestate, the Spanish House is left to his city-dwelling niece. For Isabel, recently widowed, the house is a potential lifeline - the only hope she has of providing for her two children without having to sell her most treasured possession.

Publisher's Summary
Australia, 1946: 650 brides are departing for England to meet the men they married in wartime. But instead of the luxury liner they were expecting, they find themselves aboard an aircraft carrier, alongside a thousand men.
On the sun-baked decks, old loves and past promises become distant memories, and tensions are stretched to the limit as brides and husbands change their minds. And for Frances Mackenzie, it soon becomes clear that the journey is more important than the destination....

Not my favourite from this author
I’ve read lots of Jojo Moyes and love her work. This one was good but not her best. I think there were a few too many characters so it took me a bit to get them all straight in my head. But it was an interesting story and was resolved well in the end.

A fantastic journey
Nicolette McKenzie brings the characters of this amazing story to life, her narration of each character so realistic the reader feels the sadnes, joys and fears of each one. I was even starting to dread what I thought might be the outcome of this story, so cleverly does Jojo Moynes weave her tale. Loved it!

I enjoyed this book very much. The narration was excellent. The characters were well-drawn and evolved slowly during the story-telling to reveal their true natures and personalities. An interesting read.
