“I loved this book. It was the first time I read Pilcher. I feel it is her best book. I hated to se the story end, I felt like I lost a best friend when the book ended.If you have't read Pilcher, READ THIS first.”

    “This is one of my go to books. When I need to lose myself in a well written book, I often reach for The Shell Seekers. I also like the concept of even though we love our children, we don't always like them. September has a little continuation from this book. It's not as engrossing, but it's an easy read.”
