A Beautiful Novel of the Friendship of Women...

Revisado en los Estados Unidos el 15 de diciembre de 2011

The Shell Keeper by Robin P. Nolet is one of those books that warms your heart and leaves you feeling as though you just made some new best friends. I laughed, I got weepy eyed; but mostly I just enjoyed this delightful novel. Sometimes I get nervous when I accept books for review from authors who are trying hard to get their book out there but even from the description I felt this would be a book for me. I was right! Nothing makes me feel better than when I can gush over a book and help out an author at the same time - one who is very polite and nice to work with as well. The Shell Keeper is about three women - three very different women - who fate brings together but friendship holds them there.

Gwen owns her own bakery in Blue River and loves it but it isn't always easy to make ends meet. To top it off her husband's job isn't all that stable right now with a strike looming. Claire, a real estate agent, has her own set of problems. She's tough as nails to the outside world but inside is a woman who only wants the best for those most important to her. She and Gwen start talking in the bakery one day when one of Claire's most difficult clients stomps out and leaves Claire raging. While they're talking back and forth, they hear this big crash which just happens to be Del and she has managed to hit one of the big flowerpots lining the road. Gwen rushes to call 911 and Claire goes out to see if she can help. Now Del is just starting to go through a divorce from a cheating creep and she's just frazzled which clearly shows when she comes into the shop and sits down. When they part these women still don't know that they will become friends but the seeds are planted; these ladies already care what happens to each other.

As the women begin to spend more time together they realize they are becoming friends and really all of them are a little scared. They are all reserved and protective of their feelings for their own reasons. Yet as time passes the walls start to come down between these women and they start to share their hopes and fears with each other. Gwen ends up facing a tough decision that will affect her and Andy's life as well as the friendship she's built with Claire and Del. Claire is faced with a problem too - he comes in the shape of a man whose name is Bob. Claire doesn't need any complications in her life and Bob is most definitely a complication and yet she finds herself more and more attracted to him. Del is busy juggling taking care of her two kids and working at her new job, not to mention that new man who has just happened to sweep into her life and make her feel worthy of love again. Together these ladies will navigate life and friendship together and it's a wonderful journey.

Often I find that I will only be drawn to one of the women in a novel such as this but I liked all of these ladies. They were all very real people that I could see myself knowing and liking. I really liked Gwen though, maybe because she just kind of seemed the mother hen of everyone. For the most part she was always calm and cool - well except for that one incident in the bakery with that snobby lady - but we won't hold that against her. She is just one of those people who likes to take care of everyone. Claire I liked because of her tough attitude, as for the most part it came through as really amusing to me. And Del, she was the softie of the group. Scared and alone, trying to get used to being divorced, she begins to find life again. Del is another one who continually looked out for the feelings of her friends. All in all, I could see myself being friends with them and when I turned the last page of the book I knew without a doubt I was going to miss them and I do.

The Shell Keeper is a beautiful novel of friendship. Friendship enriches our lives and means even when the world feels as though it's falling apart, we know those people are there for us. The Shell Keeper is well worth the read for those of you who love stories about the friendships of women or love a story that will warm your heart and leave you wanting more. I really, really enjoyed it! Oh, and as a note the title of the book fits the story perfectly but I don't want to give that away. You'll just have to read it for yourself to find that out!

A charming tale of friendship and devotion, chance encounters and the bonds that draw us toward each other. Gwen, Claire, and Del are completely mismatched women at different phases of their lives. They have diverse needs and past hurts that have kept them isolated from forming friendships. But this trio of unlikely confidantes finds a way to help each other heal and grow and lay new groundwork for life-changing relationships. A tender tale of camaraderie that will leave your heart soft as you turn the last page.

great character development

Honestly, I thought this book started out a little slow, but the authors excellent character development got me hooked! She does a superb job of describing the main characters, scenes and situations. I could picture all the women, see their mannerisms and felt their emotions. It was easy to feel you were there based on her detailed writing. Plus I could personally relate to all of the women which made it an exceptional read for me!! I loved the sea shell tie in even though the story takes place in a mountain town. I too am a shell collector, and the mention of paper nautilus thrilled me as they are my prized shells as well! All the best to this new exciting author, I hope to see another novel from her soon.

"The Shell Keeper" by Robin Nolet is a captivating read - I enjoyed it from beginning to end! The characters are three-dimensional and brilliantly developed, the plot lines are captivating and expertly crafted, and this book quickly becomes a page turner. It is a beautiful reminder that life is a journey that always holds surprises, that people are continually growing and changing, and that lasting friendships and relationships can develop when you least expect them. I will be ordering this book for the women on my Christmas list.

I thoroughly enjoyed the Shell Keeper. It was a lovely story of the power of girlfriends. The characters were developed so well that you quickly felt like you were part of the story. It was a very easy read that left a smile on my face. There was just enough "ah haw" moments and twists and turns to keep you turning the pages and wondering what was going to happen next. Excited to read more of Robin's books.

Robin Nolet has written a heart-warming, humorous story that brings together three very different women by chance. Each has their own set of challenges and is carrying their own baggage. Nolet cleverly weaves together their stories and shares with us the lessons they learn while they realize what strong women they are, each with something unique to give to the others. LOVE this story as it celebrates the power of friendship and the strength of women! Terrific read! The Shell Keeper

A Wonderful Beach Read!

I downloaded The Shell Keeper to my Kindle last minute before leaving for a trip. A great decision! This is the type of book that once you start reading, you don't want to put it down (perfect for a day at the beach!). A great story of 3 women and a chance meeting. Makes me take a second look at all the people I meet on a daily basis. How those in need will find help and friendship if they just open their minds and hearts to those around them. Thank you to Ms. Nolet for writing such a heart warming read!
