Summary

Run away to a beautiful Scottish island and let the unmissable new audiobook from Sunday Times best seller Jenny Colgan warm up your spring!

Dreams start here....

On the quayside next to the Endless Beach sits the Summer Seaside Kitchen. It's a haven for tourists and locals alike, who all come to eat the freshest local produce on the island and catch up with the gossip. Flora, who runs the café, feels safe and content - unless she thinks too hard about her relationship with Joel, her gorgeous but emotionally (and physically) distant boyfriend. While Flora is in turmoil about her relationship, her best friend, Lorna, is pining after the local doctor.

Saif came to the island as a refugee, having lost all of his family. But he's about to get some shocking news which will change everything for him. As cold winter nights shift to long summer days, can Flora find her happy ever after with Joel?

Loved it!

Where does The Endless Beach rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Very high, I really enjoyed the characters and story line. I liked that the relationships were fairly believable and realistic, instead of everything being perfect.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Saif. I enjoyed the storyline about his children and how he learnt to cope in a new country and in a new situation. He was also kind and laid back.

Which scene did you most enjoy?

When their dad walked Finton down the aisle.

Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

The ending was quite sad

Any additional comments?

I didn't like the voice for the child (Aget), but then I often find adults narrator a child's voice a bit cringy.

Classic Colgan

The narrator makes you feel like you are there on the island! Lovely follow up book and I hope Jenny takes us back to the island soon.

Lovely story

I loved this. Beautiful story narrated well. The only issue I have is the little girls voice. Her vocabulary is very poor for a 4 year old. I know it’s explained a bit in the book but I found it very annoying in parts. Otherwise…….cracking listen x

Strange ending

Enjoyed getting to know the characters and loved the story, but felt it didn't really have an ending. I've noticed this before with Jenny Colgan's books. Recipes. Why?
