 An easy read of a 'what if...' scenario but a little predictable February 28, 2008

If you've ever wondered 'what if I ...' then this book will get you to open your eyes to the less appealing side of the 'what if' as well as giving you an idea that come what may, branching out maybe the way to go.
This is mostly an easy read but at times can pedal slowly in its build up which can make it predictable.
 Brilliant! June 17, 2007

I never thought I would like this book. But it actually turned out to be one of my favourites! I read a lot of books, all kinds of books, and this one really took me into its story, charachters and wonderful world! I wish I'd written it, that's how much I love it! Buy it because of its amazing story and very affordable price! A perfect summer read!

i bought this book from ASDA very much becasue of the cover. It's a very easy read but the ending is just way too predictable.
A beautifully- written fusion of past and present May 13, 2006

The Dream House is a truly great read which had me chuckling one moment and crying the next. It's a book which, in the lightest and most enjoyable of ways, compares the predicaments faced by two women living a hundred years apart. One minute you are busy empathizing with the modern day dilemmas of Kate as she seeks to juggle being a successful career woman and a successful mother. The next, when Kate finds her dream house in the country, you are being whisked back in time to witness the Victorian predicaments once faced by its now elderly inhabitant Agnes. Agnes' story is both tragically gripping and fascinating in its detail - can you imagine watching the first traffic lights being put up on Oxford Street??! The two eras are cleverly linked in a story that is intricately woven and keeps you guessing to the very end. I really couldn't put it down.
