![]() ![]() ![]() The Shell Seekers is a rare kind of book – published in 1987, this beautifully written family saga has a nostalgic temperament that draws you in, regardless of your age. Thus it wasn’t until a couple of months later when I was trawling the shelves of a charity shop in nearby Wallingford with my big sister Claire, that I came across it again, and, having just finished a book, I bought it, despite my aforementioned thoughts about its front cover. I looked it up on Amazon but was immediately put off by the dated front cover which resembled something like a Mills & Boon novel. I was at the supper table with my mum and step-dad, going through The BBC Big Reads, when my mum recommended Rosamunde Pilcher’s The Shell Seekers, insisting I would enjoy it. ![]()
