The Postcard

Product Information

Penny seems to have the dream life - a husband, Simon, who adores her, and their daughter Jenna who has completed their little family unit. I would most definitely recommend The Postcard to anyone wanting a good, easy to read novel and will certainly be looking out for those follow up novels (please Fern!

Marguerite Cottage - the house behind the vicarage - has just been sold, and so Penny finds herself with some new neighbours - Kit, Adam and two dogs Terry's and Celia. Set in the beautiful Cornish village of Pendruggan, this is a story that immediately draws the reader in and makes them feel like a fly on the wall to the goings on of a variety of characters - some more likeable than others! I find Fern's writing engaging and easy to read, and her characters realistic - this book is no exception. It was good to see that Penny had so many supportive friends and family to help her through such a difficult time.I was rather excited as I have grown up with her on television, but I wasn't sure whether her cosy personality would shine through the novel or not. At the Royal Albert Hall, on 31 May 2007, Fern Britton presented the Classical BRIT Awards and also co-presented the British Soap Awards that year.

Taken under Penny’s broken wing for the summer, the safe haven of Pendruggan feels like the place for a fresh start.

I whizzed through the book, eager to discover what would happen, but unfortunately felt like it fell at the last hurdle. All the threads of the tale come together and tie in nicely but there is an abrupt ending which leads on very nicely to another instalment covering Ella’s story.Given how much I love books set in Cornwall, this was a really lovely story, that had a great community feel to it, and was just a joy to read. Penny used to be a tv producer with her own production company and live a glamorous life in London; of men, eating out, pampering herself, power lunches and flying all over the world on business and pleasure.
