About this listen
Boots Adams celebrates his 60th birthday in style with an old-fashioned Cockney knees-up, even if Gemma, James and the rest of the younger people insist that the music has to be rock and roll.
The new generation of the family are growing up quickly - Philip and Phoebe are spending a lot of time together and Maureen has ambitions to become a model, having her picture taken for the newspapers as she hopes for fame and fortune. Meanwhile, there are changes on the way. A local company wants to take over Adams Fashions and Boots and Sammy have difficult decisions to make. Rosie and Matt are thinking about selling the farm, but worry about Joe and Hortense, their loyal workers. While Felicity has resigned herself to never regaining her sight, Polly sees a familiar face that she can't place - a mysterious stranger who is being sheltered in Walworth. Anneliese encounters someone she never wished to see again and turns to Boots for help.

shortest book so far.
I prefer to hear about the Adams family themselves. Maisie, Boots, Lizzie, Tommy and Sammy & familes. this book was something and nothing. Disappointed. 😏

Loved it!
I've enjoyed all the Adams family books, but I feel this one takes you back to the earlier books. It's lovely to catch up with previous characters and their families.
I'd love this family saga to be made into a TV series, I'm sure it would have the same popularity as Call the Midwife or even Downton Abbey.

Well written and fantastic narration
Like all the characters, the dip into life after Second World War and onwards. Once you know the characters you learn to love them and it doesn’t seem to matter about the storyline anymore!
The narrator is a fantastic actor and never forgets who sounds like what and find the whole series thus far, to be well written, light hearted but seriously entertaining and heart warming at the same time.

Fantastic
As usual this didn’t disappoint. I’m getting sad because I’m approaching the end of this wonderful well written series. Just a fantastic feel good read and the characters are so familiar now.
