So I don t do them much. The green hills chapter 1 I highly recommend this book as a nice easy enjoyable read Five Stars English Review to come 13 2The author gave me a copy for my honest review I have to say I really liked this one It s a light romance with plenty of falling in love moments. The green hills of home ebook review The Green Hills of of Home is Emma Bennet s debut Novel and I think she s done a wonderful and amazing job She capture you in the first pages with her characters and their circumstances and I ve got to say that I really connect to Gwen as I m an author myself Her emotions and feelings were dead on I think she had done a wonderful job with Gwen and not to mention the heart throb editor What we authors wouldn t do to land an editor like John Thatcher. The green green hills of home I love romance but I hate the type of novels that just jump with one another into bed without even knowing who the other person is Emma didn t do it here Half way through the novel there isn t even any mention of falling in love etc and when it did happened it was so much magical. The green hills of homezee The author was good at putting across how awkward the two main characters felt towards each other at the beginning and how slowly over time they got and comfortable with each other I got to about 3 4 of the way through and did wonder when anything romantic was going to happen between them but then things started to fall into place The author was very good at building up the tension and suspense in their relationship The story was quite straight forward but I loved that Emma wasn t afraid to throw in some obstacles for the characters to shake things up a bit and it was interesting and somewhat surprising to see how they reacted As silly as this may sound.

The green hills of homey lyrics

Had quite an important role in the story Oscar is what seemed to open John up and allow his emotions that he d previously tried hard to hide shine through and I though that was a really nice touch to the story John came across very cold at the beginning of the book and I ll admit I didn t like him very much He wasn t sensitive to Gwen s situation and thought only of himself I got to about chapter 4 and still knew very little about him other than the fact he is a workaholic and although originally I thought that was quite a negative thing by the end of the book I thought it worked quite well because about halfway through John definitely finds his feet in Gwen s world and you really begin to see another side of him It also showed how quickly he was affected by Gwen and her life I would however have liked him to be a prominent figure in the earlier chapters and if anything be even ruder and colder than he really was One thing I noticed was the characters inconsistency towards each other I know as individuals they are both confused about their feelings towards one another but I found one sentence in which Gwen was saying how rude John was and then the sentence immediately after she was sad that he was leaving the following day I think the idea that their emotions are very conflicting is good but I feel it could have been put across a bit strategically I felt this book was a good length and a well rounded story It was well written but not exceptionally written and what I mean by that is that I could easily tell it was the authors first novel A very enjoyable.

Book the green hills of home Gwen thinks all her problems are solved with the book deal as her family home is being sold from beneath them and with her beloved elderly and infirm mother to care for it seems like her perfect wish has come true but will it all be plain sailing to get there I loved every aspect of this book it is a classic and gentle romance with strong values of duty and devotion that carry the story along nicely It is very well written with gasp out loud plot twists that leave you feeling momentarily bereft for Gwen who is a lovely relatable character In fact I loved all the characters and relationships within this book I especially loved Gwen s dog Oscar The description of the Welsh scenery and the creaky cottage was delightful I could imagine I was sat at Gwen s kitchen table with her Just one questionwhat was the book Gwen was working on The ending was beautiful and all was tied up nicely I am very much looking forward to Emma s next novel English What a great read A lovely story very very romantic great characters and just enough little plot twists to engross you in the tale and really keep you reading without being distracting. The green hills of homezee Sweet rather than steamy it s not for when you re in a 50 Shades kinda mood To characterise there are so many stereotypes it s actually painful Coming from the country the main character Gwen is nervous and out of place when she goes to London as apparently at 20 something she has never been to a city before Everyone in the town where she lives knows each other and all are friendly and seem to spend all their time gossiping rather than doing any actual work John her editor comes from London so of course he s completely lost in the country is a workaholic and can t relax Like all people who live in cities he s only interested in making money. The green hills of home fiction pdf The other thing that really annoyed me was Gwen After landing the publishing deal that was to save the family home she then refused to accommodate them in any way She couldn t possibly go to London to work with the editor because her mum was ill and she had to care for her Not true her mum was in hospital so she was unable to travel because she wanted to go visit her every day and couldn t possibly miss the odd day Unless of course it suited her in which case she just gave her a ring on the phone instead She also had a job which she couldn t possibly miss Although the job was 3 or 4 hour shifts every few days in a tea room where the owners were perfectly happy to change them to suit her It was also difficult for her as she had no man to help with the chores around the house and she didn t want to be an old maid direct quote. The green hills of home fiction pdf What century is this book set in I live alone work 50 60 hour weeks at a very stressful job pay all of my bills look after the house and my animals and still have to find time to look after an ill relative She doesn t know how lucky she is to faff around in a tea shop for a couple of hours a week and spend the rest of her time gossiping sleeping in and making the odd trip to the hospital. The green hills of homezee SPOILER Don t worry though by the end of the book she finds a man with money who pays for everything and takes over all of the household chores English On Thursday I bought the e book of The Green Hills of Home by Emma Bennet a little bit because her cover reminds me of my own but also because we connected via Chick Lit Goddess group on Facebook. The green green hills of home I read the first little bit while on my lunch hour and then had to give it up for work the inconvenience of it anyway Friday Night arrived and I couldn t get to sleep for whatever reason So I opened my Kindle and started reading just for an hour I told myself that was 12. The green green hills of home For me any book you can devour in a few hours is fantastic I m a very fast reader and as it s on Kindle I don t really know how long the book is but it s a lovely story that keeps you guessing. Book the green hills of home author Gwen is a writer and signs a three book deal with Black Horse Publishing a deal which will secure her family home for her and her ailing mother Gwen cant spend time in London working on her manuscript with her editor John so he comes to spend time with her in Wales What follows is a very entertaining story filled with misunderstandings laughter possibly a few tears and a very lovely love story. Book the green hills of home book Emma has created a very likeable and personable especially for a fellow author character with Gwen I instantly felt a little like she could be my friend something invaluable in a book I find With John I wasn t ever sure what I made of him that s kind of the point at times he seems so confident and sexy and at other times he seems like the kind of man who you would happily slap for being such a pompous ass The other characters weaved into the story are equally likeable except when they aren t I don t like to give away the stories I ve said it before I don t like spoilers I d like to say a huge thank you to the lovely author Emma Bennet for getting in contact with me and requesting a review for The Green Hills of Home I love finding new review requests in my inbox I always feel a little bubble of excitement at the thought of discovering a new author and another brand new story It s probably one of my favourite feelings in the world So Emma I cannot thank you enough I think one of the main reasons as to why I enjoyed reading The Green Hills of Home so much was because of the fact that Emma s heroine Gwen Jones was an aspiring writer Dabbling in writing myself I was able to connect and click with her instantly She was passionate about her work eager to succeed and I just think it was such a gorgeous aspect to add the story I haven t read that many stories that have involved authors before so it was a delightfully refreshing change from the characters who are stuck in an office all day you know Another thing that I noticed almost immediately regarding Gwen s character and something that made me respect her even was how fiercely loyal she was to her dear mother When Gwen was given a book deal despite it being a dream come true she wasn t willing to start travelling all over the place because she wanted to be there if and when her mother needed her I found this incredibly heart warming and it emphasised how truly selfless Gwen s character was She was polite intelligent and was not about to let her mother down no matter cropped up There was a ton of depth to her character allowing me to really get to know her from the inside out Her worries what made her happy and what wound her up What I loved was even though Gwen was polite and friendly she wasn t about to let anybody walk all over her She was firm in her beliefs and so considerate when it came to her mother who was in the hospital Overall Gwen s character was truly likeable and it was a joy to be invited along on her journey When Gwen is given her book deal John Thatcher the handsome man that she s bumped into numerous times on the street turns out to be her stone faced workaholic editor From the moment Gwen walks into his office to introduce herself John is not the most welcoming In fact he s downright rude Emma did such a fantastic job of creating the love hate relationship between these two and the fact that the story also slipped into John s point of view too made it endlessly entertaining The majority of the time John had his phone permanently glued to the side of his face and was too busy typing to actually make polite conversation So when Gwen refuses to head back to work with John on her manuscript he has no other option except to go to Gwen instead Eeeep I freaking loved this aspect I adored the fact that John would be stepping out of his usual habitat of technology and sleek professionalism and heading to Wales to the land of countryside and to a farmhouse where his signal was going to be non existent He was like a fish out of water I laughed out loud at the thought of him being there completely stranded without the use of his phone and without news from back at the office I found John s character to be increasingly frustrating He was so proper and serious all the time and if I d have been Emma I would have kicked him straight out of my home and told him to bugger off back to where he came from Of course Gwen wouldn t have been able to that John was her editor at the publishing house where she d just been given a book deal Even an inch of rudeness could have put her right back where she started and the farmhouse would have been hanging in the balance I just got this distinct impression from him that nothing was good enough nothing was up to his impeccably high standards and at one point during reading I was actually hoping and praying that he was going to loosen up because I was just wound up by his rude manner Of course poor old John wasn t being like that for no reason Everybody has their reasons for acting the way they do and that includes Mr John Thatcher too Thankfully the added bonus of Emma flipping the narrative to John allowed me to get inside his mind and find out what exactly was the reason that had him behaving the way he was It was BRILLIANT Emma moved her plot along at such a lovely gentle pace going into depth with details at just the right moments and letting me in on little secrets here and there Her dilemma was evident she needed the book deal to help keep the farmhouse If she lost the farmhouse then her mother would have been devastated and book deal or no book deal Gwen Jones would have felt like a big fat failure Generations of their family had lived in the farmhouse and there was no way that Gwen was prepared to give it up The fact that Gwen s mother was in hospital broke the story up nicely allowing Gwen time away from John whenever he was staying at her home to work on her manuscript I felt that if it hadn t of been for visiting her mother Gwen would have been driven completely insane Another character that I capture my heart was the absolutely adorable Oscar Gwen s dog I think Oscar played such a great role in the story and played a part in turning John s opinions around about the farmhouse where Gwen lived and even Gwen herself The atmosphere between the two characters was up and down constantly sometimes they were getting along other times they were each other s worst enemy I loved watching how over time the relationship changed and moulded into something new entirely The progression of it was perfect and I am so thankful that Emma didn t rush it because it just wouldn t have had the same effect on me Overall I really enjoyed reading The Green Hills of Home by Emma Bennet It was warm entertaining and superbly written The romance the dilemmas the determination to keep the farmhouse It all equalled one fabulous read that I m so happy I had the chance to read and review Again Emma thank you SO much for getting in contact with me and I do hope you keep me in my mind when looking for any future reviewers I d be than happy to volunteer myself Becca s Books is rating The Green Hills of Home by Emma Bennet with four cupcakes The setting of Wales the lack of signal and the creaky old farmhouse made for one gorgeous story that I happily snuggled up with English Writer Gwen Jones is thrilled when her manuscript is about to be published but editor John Thatcher is looking like he will be difficult for Gwen to work with and he is not happy that Gwen s commitment to her ill mum Edith means that she cannot travel to London to work so he must make the journey to the remote part of Wales were Gwen lives. The green green hills of home Gwen is really hoping to land this book deal as she desperately needs the money to save her home but with John been moody and them having to spend so much time together Will all go to plan This book had me intrigued from page one It is a delightful story mainly just featuring the two central characters of Gwen and John The book is really well written with a story line that will just make you want to keep on reading English I really enjoyed this book it was a nice gentle love story with great characters and a great story It was well written and flowed easily The only criticism I have is that there are only ten chapters and they are quite long I think they could have been spaced about a bit for ease of reading But I would recommend this to all romance and chick lit fans English A perfect light summer romance I fell in love with this book the characters and the story I enjoyed all the banter between all of the characters. Green hills of africa book I laughed and cried with them For me it was one of those soul satisfying reads that just makes you happy I look forward to stories from Emma English Firstly I d like to thank Emma Bennet for providing me with a lovely signed paperback review copy of her book I will admit straight up that I m not a huge fan of romance Books films valentines day It all makes me a bit squeamish but I m all for trying new books that I wouldn t usually read so I decided to give it a go The Green Hills of Home is about a young writer called Gwen who luckily enough lands herself a publishing contract with Black Horse Publishing The money from this deal is crucial as she needs it to save the farmhouse she and many generations of her family before her have lived in With her mother ill in hospital she is unable to travel to London every day to work with her editor so her editor comes to stay in her house to work on her book Of course her editor John Thatcher is extremely handsome passionate and a true gentleman He is also completely falling for Gwen After a rocky start the pair find common ground and start working quite well together but can John really risk his job that he strives for every day to be with someone he works with Can Gwen start something up with her editor whilst the future of her beloved house is so rocky and her mother is ill in hospital Whilst they battle obstacles together and as individuals will Gwen s devotion as a daughter over run her desire to be with John Is John capable of loving anyone as much as he loves his job The story covers duty and devotion I liked that Gwen s dog Oscar established and well thought out first novel but in my opinion if there was emphasis on helping the reader live the story rather than just reading it I think it would have been a slight improvement. Book the green hills of home This was a sweet heart warming and very safe debut novel I personally would have liked a bit drama but that s just me and obviously not what the author was going for It was very readable I finished it in only 2 days and although I said I don t really enjoy romance I actually couldn t put this book down The romance side of things wasn t too over whelming which was what I was worried about Instead it was well proportionated in comparison to other aspects of the book and I felt there was a nice balance between Gwen s feelings for John and her other duties particularly to her mother This was a lovely little story that showed the difference in people and their own little worlds the importance of family and making compromises for those you love. The green hills of homezee Gwen s dog Oscar is really playing a very important role in this novel and everyone will fall in love with him and how he changes John: Book the green hills of home book I appreciate the fact that Emma chose to do it that way We got a chance to fall in love with Gwen and John and that says a lot, The green hills of homey review I would recommend this novel to every one that loves a good light romance: The green hills of home fiction pdf Nice Job Emma and good luck with your writing career English
