Listening to this on audiobook form allowed me to feel as if I was walking the shore in Wales. The narrator did a perfect job of transporting me to this place the the author visually described in perfect detail. The lilt of the narrators accent combined with the few moments of Welsh language submersed me in another world.
The story of their marriage problems is one that isn't new or original but the way our main character finds her way through it does speak to the evolution of her character. There is a small amount of mystery surrounding the FMC's past and her mother's past as well but in the end it felt a little anti-climatic.
I really enjoyed some of the supporting characters and the way the helped Nan through a great deal of her emotional journey. My main criticism is that her husband's attitude and treatment of Nan is all over the place so it starts to make you dislike him and when the story starts to give him some credit for doing the right thing at times, it's hard to have any sympathy for him. Over all, I really felt like the picture painted by the author gave the audiobook so much texture and depth of scenery that it felt like I could picture what it was like to be on the New England Coast.

I was given an advance copy of this audiobook by NetGalley in exchange for my honest review. I want to thank them for the opportunity.
