A Week in Winter

Author: Maeve Binchy
Stars: 4
Review by: Car-Lay

This is the first book I've read by Binchy and I really enjoyed it.  Her character development is very good and she introduces her characters one by one, each with their own chapter.  They all meet for a weeks vacation in an old, beautifully renovated inn on the Atlantic coast of Ireland.  Each chapter is a like a short story but she does not spend much time developing the interactions between the characters while they are staying at the inn.   That is the only thing I found lacking in the book and I felt it ended abruptly.  Maybe I just wanted to know more about what happened next for the characters!
