At the River Edge The Chesapeake Diaries Mariah Stewart 9780345538420 Books Reviews


  • I just loved At the River's Edge. I have read all the books in the Chesapeake Diaries. This I another great story. A two-timing boyfriend has Sophie Enright re-evaluating what she wants to do with her life. She goes to visit her brother. While visiting her brother she meets Jason Bowers a new resident of St. Denis. She decides to quit her old job and become part of Enright and Enright attorneys at law her familiy's law firm. She also decides her true passion is cooking and decides to open a restaurant. Jason is a landscaper. There dreams conflict with one another. You have to read this to see what happens.
  • I have read all of Mariah's "The Chesapeake Diaries" and I love the setting (the Eastern Shore of MD). The quaint little town with it's inhabitants and their ancestors that have spanned centuries. And they all have a story to tell from the worlds first super model to the old time renowned actress, and her niece who is the presently the biggest name in Hollywood and Mariah weaves the interlinked characters flawlessly, Most have had a life elsewhere and have come back to their roots for refuge and always reconnect. It's a town I'd like to live in and people I would like to know. It melds the older generation with the young townspeople flawlessly and mixes in a little of the occult in a way that is not offensive even to a Christian like myself
  • I keep returning to the Chesapeake Diaries and others of Mariah Stewart's works. This is very unusual for me, as I am a thriller gal. But, in reading this author, I have found a desire in me to return to a place where everyone knows each others names...and where all paths cross, intersect, and drift in another direction. All are linked beautifully together inside the diary of a character named Grace.

    You find the blending of generations, and the history of a town, that invariably makes you want to return, over and over again. I also was delighted that the recipe's spoken of in the book are added at the end ) I'm sure I will find myself making one or two and smiling as I serve them.
  • I had never read Mariah Stewart's books until one day when I was craving something to read. That's when a new favorite author was added to my list. I have read all the Chesapeake series including At River's Edge.
    These books are wonderful. I love the characters and the home town feel of the story line. If you want to take a break and relax, do it with this author. She has a great writing style with realistic characters; the story moves at a soothing pace with nothing boring here. Single young women ban together to help each other realize their dreams and the men they have loved, some since childhood. The word HOME is in the title of the first 7 books. The series continue with
    RIVER"S EDGE but it is a continuation in the Chesapeake series.
    How soon is her next 'River's Edge' coming out? I want it and I'm greedy--I WANT IT NOW! I'm suffering from Stewart withdraw
  • This is one of a series, all of which are very good reads. Most a well-written, but my version was full of typos (from the scanning process?) and, occasionally, odd punctuation. That's a technical issue. The books themselves feature well-developed characters who appear in several of the books, creating continuity. You will hate it when you get to the last book in the series because you'll be hooked by then. I was.
  • This is the first of this series I've read. This is a great read where Sophie comes to visit her brother Jess to heal her broken heart; Jason also came to make a fresh start after his brother Eric is killed in Iraq. The drama is that they both want the same piece of land but are half way to falling in love with each other. I love the little bit of supernatural overtones with Grace and her Quija board and Sophie's grandfather feeling like his deceased wife Rose is still around. Such a cute story with a sweet ending. Looking forward to reading Jess and Brooke's story (Brooke is Eric's widow with her 8 yr old son). diamondgirl
  • I loved the story. It did move slow at times because of to much description of places or things. I enjoyed all the characters and purchased the book because this was next in the series. I have all the books and will purchase the next one. I gave it a five star rating because I believe it is one that is deserved. I just hope that the next book in the series can be pre-ordered on the very soon.
  • I enjoyed this story and plan to continue with the other titles in this series. I'm sure I won't be disappointed.
