Someone at a Distance by Dorothy Whipple
slow-paced
3.5
I liked the writing style and the drama as I listened to the audiobook while cross stitching.
Avery is the worst character. He is not a man he left Ellen and then didn’t want to commit and complete what he started with Louise (I didn’t like how she was represented as the absolute evil)
Ellen was so naive that much she really irritated me. Also she didn’t fight to get her husband before the divorce.
Ann was very childish in the beginning like a 7 years old. How later she became in a position to talk about separation and divorce?
The character I liked the most was John and I was thinking that he will end up with Ellen.
I enjoyed the overall experience and I will explore the writer’s other work.

I didn’t like how the focus was more on Viola and Mathieu more than the shop and Jude.
I wanted to hear more about Gertie’s stories with Jude I like them more than the other characters.
And why the book skipped the part where Gertie’s father realises that he is the father? Why Gertie’s mother didn’t talk to Jude about it?

I’m so much angry and disappointed. I want to re-write the ending so badly. Sadly, it was written on realistic view and selfish, unsympathetic, coward, and lusty people like Hilary do exist Oh I hate Hilary from the bottom of my heart 😡
I really wished that Jean would end up living with Pierre. 😢
When the boy kept holding the small red gloves 🧤 in his fists that broke my heart 💔
