Ebook About
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A seaside town helps one young woman reclaim the light after darkness in an uplifting novel from #1 New York Times bestselling author Debbie Macomber.“Romantic, warm, and a breeze to read—one of Macomber’s best.”—Kirkus Reviews Annie Marlow has been through the worst. Rocked by tragedy, she heads to the one place that makes her happy: Oceanside in the Pacific Northwest, the destination of many family vacations when Annie was a teenager.    Once there, Annie begins to restore her broken spirit, thanks in part to the folks she meets: a local painter, Keaton, whose large frame is equal to his big heart—and who helps Annie fix up her rental cottage by the sea; Mellie, the reclusive, prickly landlord Annie is determined to befriend; and Britt, a teenager with a terrible secret. But it is Keaton to whom Annie feels most drawn. His quiet, peaceful nature offers her both comfort and reprieve from her grief, and the two begin to grow closer. Then events threaten to undo the idyll Annie has come to enjoy. And when the opportunity of a lifetime lands in her lap, she is torn between the excitement of a new journey toward success and the safe and secure arms of the haven—and the man—she’s come to call home. In this heartwarming tale, Annie finds that the surest way to fix what is damaged within is to help others rise above their pain and find a way to heal.Praise for Cottage by the Sea“Macomber never disappoints. Tears and laughter abound in this story of loss and healing that will wrap you up and pull you in; readers will finish it in one sitting.”Library Journal (starred review)   “Macomber’s story of tragedy and triumph is emotionally engaging from the outset and ends with a satisfying conclusion. Readers will be most taken by the characters, particularly Annie, a heartwarming lead who bolsters the novel.”Publishers Weekly

Book Cottage by the Sea: A Novel Review :



First off, I have to confess I am no fan of romance novels, never have been. The last romantic stories I read were “A Woman of Substance” and “The Thorn Birds”, some 30 years ago. I don’t even like novels at all, preferring instead non-fiction, true stories about history, spy stories, and especially anything about the U-boats. So it’s conceivable that my review of this book may not be very objective. I mean, are all romantic novels so schmaltzy?I chose this book because of the title; my family owned a cottage by the sea in Wells Beach (on the opposite coast), where I spent all my summers, so I figured I could relate to the story. HA! Not even close. Also, quite frankly, it had been on the Seattle Times best seller list for MONTHS. I figured, how bad could it be, right? I just needed a little fluff to read at night when I can’t sleep, something to get my mind off whatever it is that’s keeping me awake.And, frankly, this book did that, which is the only reason I gave it two stars. The author has proffered up an interesting story line and established her characters quite well. I often felt like giving up and throwing the book in the GoodWill bin, along with all my clothes donations, but I had to find out what happened to the characters — which is the only reason I stuck with it. I had to read past a lot of pages, skipping lots of redundant fluff that the author said over and over again, ad nauseam. It’s an insult to the integrity of the reader, as if the author can’t remember that she already said it a couple dozen times before. And seriously, does it really take five pages for the boyfriend to decide whether or not to give the bouquet of daisies to his girlfriend? I got the impression that the author had a page quota.If you are interested in this book, you can find it at GoodWill, where I will be donating it. No more of this genre of book for me!
Spoiler alert.I wanted to like this book. I really did. It has such a great premise. It’s about a woman starting a new life in a cottage by the sea in a little town in the Pacific Northwest after a terrible tragedy, and finding the ideal job AND true love AND a new family AND happiness AND a kitten. What’s not to like? Well, for one thing, the writing is awful and repetitive (I say this at risk of sounding repetitive, since many other reviews have said the same thing). For another, it’s ridiculously predictable and emotionally stunted.I suggest you read this synopsis instead of the book, and use the money you’ve saved to buy yourself an actual good book.The first chapter starts with, “Annie Marlow hated to disappoint her parents,” and that perfectly sets the stage for the tale of codependency that follows. The author devotes the next four and a half pages to an infuriating conversation between Annie (the protagonist) and her mother, in which the latter wants the former to change her plans for Thanksgiving at the last minute, even though Annie has already made another commitment. When Annie draws a boundary, saying that she’ll be home for Christmas as planned, her mother repeatedly begs, guilt trips, gaslights, harangues and invalidates Annie. Then her whole family tragically dies at Thanksgiving, and Annie feels guilty that she did not give in to her mother’s demands and therefore survived. So, to deal with her grief and guilt, she ends up moving to the town where her family vacationed when she was young, and then she proceeds to win everyone over, Anne of Green Gables style (they even have the same name), except in repetitive, disjointed writing. Well-intentioned blunders magically work out for the best through predictable coincidences, and everyone’s life is miraculously turned around by the irresistibly charming Annie. The reclusive, verbally abusive, mentally ill landlady becomes Annie’s BFF, ends up being an awesome all-around person, and even finds true love with a man who gaslights her into proving her love by powering through crippling agoraphobia for him. Annie becomes the town’s token pregnant teenager’s shoulder to lean on. More repetitive writing. The town’s token battered cleaning lady is empowered to stand up to her token drunk, abusive husband and he is banished forever. The creep who ogled Annie on the beach when she was 14 and he was 18 or 19 is still in love with her 13 years later and recognizes her immediately when they happen to meet on the windswept beach and he realizes right then and there that she’s his destiny. He proceeds to stalk her and she becomes the sun in his sky and he helps her fix up the little cottage and gives her a kitten and there’s lots of sexual tension, and then the second she does something he doesn’t like, he doesn’t even bother to get all the facts or communicate about it, and he discards and ghosts her, acting out in abusive, emotionally immature ways. He avoids her for three months, rationalizing that he knew she would hurt and leave him and was unsafe to love, but it turns out he only did this because he was abused and unloved as a child, and since she was set up for codependence by her dysfunctional family dynamics, she takes him back like it’s all good, and even though there’s no more sexual tension, she manipulates him into saying he’ll marry her and have children with her and then their insecure attachment styles and inability to communicate in an adult fashion magically vanish in a fluffy pink cloud of fluffiness and they get married and then it all comes full circle when the antisocial landlady and her gaslighting husband and their bun in the oven and the cleaning lady who’s now divorced and taking night classes and the teenager who gave her kid up for adoption with Annie’s sage counseling and Annie and her avoidant stalker hubby all have thanksgiving together and Annie realizes she’s found a new family and everyone lives happily ever after while you’re left a little nauseated. The end.
