New York Times best-selling author Maeve Binchy has a way of making everyday experiences extraordinary. Scarlet Feather introduces budding entrepreneurs Cathy and Tom who, along with their extended families, meet the trials and rewards of life head on.

Scarlet Feather is a new catering company formed by two friends from cooking school, Cathy Scarlet and Tom Feather. Their dream is to have the best business in Dublin. Over the course of a year, from one New Year’s Eve to the next, Cathy and Tom struggle to make their dream a reality. Along the way, they meet their families’ opposition, find the support of friends, and live through the heartaches and triumphs that come with time.

Author of the "Oprah’s Book Club"® selection Tara Road, Maeve Binchy is loved the world over for her humorous and compassionate portrayals of ordinary lives. Combined with the subtle skills of award-winning narrator Barbara Caruso, Scarlet Feather is a heartwarming glimpse into the world Cathy and Tom work to make for themselves.

I needed a change after quite a few mysteries/thrillers and thought I'd give this a try. I was pleasantly surprised how enjoyable it was. The characters were all very likeable, the story kept your interest and, of course, I love anything Irish. The ending wasn't what I would have written but you can't have everything.

As always, Maeve Binchy delivers a wonderful story with believable and sympathetic characters - and even a few you love to hate. And I’m always a fan of a pretty ending.

Lovely!

Loved it. The characters were believable and interesting. The interaction among them was compelling. Was happy to see the evolving changes thru the year's events.

Great story!

I really enjoyed this story. Each and every character was likable. Even the ones you weren’t supposed to like seemed to grow a bit by the end. The narrator was enthusiastic and energetic but she made every character sound like a 65 year old woman. I mean they literally all sounded like Mrs. Doubtfire, which was a little tough when most of the main characters were supposed to be in their 20s and 30s. I would recommend this author but probably not this narrator.

A fun listen

Would you consider the audio edition of Scarlet Feather to be better than the print version?

I don't know. I never read the print version.

Who was your favorite character and why?

It's hard to choose! I related to all of them!

Which character – as performed by Barbara Caruso – was your favorite?

Again, it's hard to choose. The story equally addressed all of the characters--one was not more special than the other to me

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

It definitely made me laugh at times! I didn't go as far as cry, but I did feel sad when the characters were having a hard time with money, relationships, and the restaurant issues in general.

LOVE!

Maeve Binchy’s novels are simply delicious….as warm and cozy as a slice of crumb cake with coffee.

Such endearing characters
