## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    very British
  

*by G***N on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 29, 2022*

This book is certainly very British. The characters stand out as very stoic typical of their breed. They certainly think and feel so differently than Americans  but the story was lovely in its own way

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    fizzles at the end
  

*by J***D on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 23, 2009*

Passing On starts out with terrific characters, good conflict, and I enjoyed it immensely. But the end just sort of fades out--it was rather unsatisfying. Phantom mother just gets abandoned. Goth nephew just leaves. Ultra religious student with wealthy parent just goes off on vacation. Dreamboat lawyer just gets politely dismissed over the phone. Obnoxious neighbor just waves and walks away. Nasty little dog even just gets handled by other people.Maeve Binchy would have handled the resolution of these conflicts so much better. The first 3/4 of the book, I couldn't wait to 'pass it on' to my friend who has shared so many Binchy, Marcia Willett, and Rosamunde Pilcher novels with me. But after I finished it, I just slid it into the bookshelf, thinking "nah, not so good after all..."

    Character Studies
  

*by M***R on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 29, 2013*

Her writing is so different from the more contemporary writers. One has to get used to her style. However, I really grew to love her writing style in this book and another read, "The Road to Lichfield" Her character development is outstanding.I found myself caring for each of the main studies. I could draw clear mental pictures of the characters. They are brought to life in her vivid descriptions. I compare her more to the English authors such as Bronte or Austen. There is not much action. but I was still drawn to the more gentle nuances, The reader is invited to draw her own conclusions as to the actions of the characters instead of being told what they are thinking.
