I loved the first book I ever read by Rosamunde Pilcher, it really gave the meaning to the expression "confort reading". So I couldn't pass the opportunity to read this collection of short stories.As with all short stories, some are better than others, and even though the book is named after "the Blue Bedroom", my favorite story was actually the second. I've felt the exact same way that man has: when we long for something for so long, and then finally get it... sometimes, what we longed for isn't all it's cracked up to be.
A lovely book.
And now this book is in my house has a borrowing of syrin!
Sorry, but I can't promise to be fast... anyway you know where to find me, so I guess there will be no problem! :P

I usually don't like books with small stories but this one is so sweet that is impossible not to like all the stories...
Thanks syrin!

Just arrived! I love books with small stories, and this one seems to be really beatiful. I'll try to be brief!
As I thought, this book's really beautiful. Perfect to be read near the fire place =) This was my first book from Rosamunde Pilcher, and now I'm curious about her work... I can't pick my favourite story, because I loved them all, they're all very beautiful!
