Average Rating: 
Rating:  - "At Home, For Katy, Friday 16th September"
September is the major work by Rosamunde Pilcher than I connect with least. The story spans a brief period of months leading up to the September season in Scotland, and the "at home" dance the Steyntons are having for their daughter Katy's twenty-first. Just these brief details show that although the setting is Scotland, the whole narrative is deeply steeped in English culture. The setting is the present day (or was when written), but September is filled with living anachronisms like the shooting ... Read More
Rating:  - Didn't do it for me.......
I had to force myself to finish this book, did not feel the connection to the characters like in other prior stories, Winter Solistice made me fall in love with Pilcher's story telling then it came The Shell Seakers and then Coming Home, wow can I find another story that will top these three books. I don't know.......
Rating:  - Nice surprise
I am not a reader of romance novels, tending to stick to Science Fiction or Fantasy, but at the prodding of a trusted friend, I purchased September and Shell Seekers. What lovely books!

Rating: - Amazing
This book is a sort of continuation from Pilcher's Shellseekers (another amazing book). While not as epic in scope as Shellseekers, September is still more than enjoyable. I've read it countless times over the years and am always drawn in by the lifelike characters.
The only complaint I have (and it's a minor one) is the dialogue between male characters. It seems forced and unnatural. It seems Pilcher should have maybe talked with the men in her life more to see how their conversations ... Read More
Rating:  - Excellent
This was an excellent book. I love Rosamunde Pilcher and she brings the characters to life in "September". So descriptive that it makes you feel like your actually there. I want to go to Scotland now that I've read this book!!!
