    About this audiobook

    Two snowbound strangers discover their personal lives are more frozen than the weather in #1 New York Times bestselling author Rosamunde Pilcher’s audiobook Snow in April.

    Caroline travels to Scotland, hoping to make contact with a brother she hasn’t seen for years, and return in time for her wedding to the man her strong-willed stepmother thought so suitable. Then a sudden snow strands her in an isolated house with a young man recovering from tragedy. Both are on the brink of terrible mistakes, but perhaps they can save each other.

    • 2/5
      Of the three Pilcher novels I have read (The Shell Seekers, September, and Winter Solstice), this was not only a much earlier book, published in 1972, but one that is much shorter and has much less substance — especially when compared to what I have come to expect from a Pilcher novel.

      The comparisons I have seen in other reviews that liken this to a Hallmark movie are far more correct than not — this was very fluffy and far more focused on a surface-level romance rather than the deep emotional bond or connection I have gotten from each of the other books I mentioned. There was very little by way of atmosphere — which I've also come to count on in her books. The atmospheric warmth (even when knee-deep in snow) of Scotland and the people of the village is absent ... or there with barely a hint. And while there is an old Scottish house, it doesn't seem to take on a role within the story as though it was another character on its own.

      However, despite the downfalls of Snow in April, I could still catch glimpses of the Pilcher who would come to write her most famous novels, The Shell Seekers and September.

      Audiobook, as narrated by Lucy Paterson: Paterson did a fine job here. She really had a lovely voice and provided wonderful narration for a variety of characters from young to old and male or female.

      Rather lame storyline. A little concocted. Ending very predictable.

      I adore Rosamunde Pilcher and everything she wrote. Can’t wait to read another!
