About this listen

A poignant and heart-warming tale about family, relationships and new beginnings, The Summer Seaside Kitchen is best-selling author Jenny Colgan at her best. A must for fans of lighthearted comedy and cooking, this charming story will make you reminisce about your own family ties.

Flora is forced to move back to the tiny island of Mure from the bright lights of London. It's tough: even the beautiful landscapes and bright blue sea can't lift her spirits - she's too busy looking after her dad and her feckless brothers. Then she chances upon her mum's collection of recipes and begins to cook her way through it. As she reconnects with her family and the place she was born, might she also find herself?

I haven’t finished this book yet but I love it soooooo much that I want to share it ASAP. I can just taste the food described and see the landscape. I even want to move there.

Loved the story it was fascinating I didn't really love the narration though it was very flat at times and boring.

Good story

This is my favourite of Jenny Colgan's novels, of which I own many. If you love the genre of escapism chick lit the formula of this book will be reassuringly familiar. Where it succeeds is imbuing that formula with genuine depth and warmth. The protagonist is honest, capable and perfectly imperfect. The setting is magical and the narrator is great. Would certainly recommend.

Enjoyable Escape
