Book review: The Beach Hut by Veronica Henry

THE BEACH HUT by Veronica Henry, Orion, £6.99. Out July 22.

EVERDENE Sands is the location for tales of life, love, fun and friction during the summer holidays at the beach huts.

Home to regulars and newcomers who are linked only by the location and brief encounters with each other, The Beach Hut tells the tales of the lives of the owners who grow up, move away and return to the place they hold close to their hearts every summer.

Veronica Henry has hit on a simple idea of using one setting to tell the stories of so many people.

It’s a great feel-good read and is beautifully written with characters – young and the old – you can really feel at home with.
