The Cliff House by Amanda Jennings
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Haunting and evocative, The Cliff House is beautifully and elegantly told with gorgeous, lyrical prose and an eerie, almost nostalgic storyline. It’s one of those books that you just want to savour, rather than race through, because every page feels like you’re actually there, feeling the sun on your skin and dipping your toes in the pool.
Throughout the book you can feel the beauty of the Cornish coast around you as a sense of trouble and impending doom broods. With authentically written characters who will most definitely get under your skin, this is a stunning novel that sets Jennings firmly in the literary category.
