The Belsey family and the Kipps family are headed by men who have opposing views and have a small feud going on. The feud is a little one sided and the two mens families are dragged into it in one way or another. For me the story was mainly about the Belsey family and the gradual break down of relationships within that family.
I enjoyed parts of it whilst others were a little tedious. It is written with humour and the descriptiveness of the writing is fabulous.

A sprawling expanse of a book that follows the fortunes and trials of two families linked by their distrust and dislike of each other. It took a while for me to get through this book, I had to re-read bits of it as I had lost the train of it. I found I just didn’t like the characters- there were funny, endearing moments but on the whole it was one of those books that I just didn’t get the hype- this will probably come back to haunt me as I’ll re-read in a few years and go ‘that’s a really great book’ 😁
I'm always interested to read a book that has mixed reviews, so have taken this from the Already Crossed Book Box.
Well I tried, but I have ended up giving up on this. It's just not the book for me at the moment. Rather than holding on to it, I will try and get it moving again soon.
