Book Reviews of The Chisellers
Book Review: A Wonderful Treat
Summary: 5 Stars
There is something for everyone in O'Carroll's writing. If you read and enjoyed "The Mammy" then don't wait another minute before reading "The Chisellers."
O'Carrol writes another splendid narrative of the adventures of Agnes Browne and her children. This book, like The Mammy, will cause you to laugh and will almost bring you to tears at other times.
The only downside of this book is that it is over too quickly. Thank goodness there is still another one in the series to read.
Book Review: The Chisellers
Summary: 5 Stars
I loved every word on every page of this book of family relationships. I found myself laughing aloud when Mam came to the defense of her daughter. I felt the tears before I knew I was weeping when the siblings joined together to protect their mother from the truth about her child. On the one hand the book is deeply rich with character development, on the other it is pure entertainment. My only criticism is that the book was too brief...Book Review: Wonderful!
Summary: 5 Stars
Anxious to continue with Agnes Browne as "The Mammy", this second in the series was an absolute treasure. Read in an afternoon, can't wait to read it again. Although there is some serious subject matter the delivery is wonderful. For any fan of "Angela's Ashes", "Mary McGreevy" and "Tis" I highly recommend O'Carroll! Look forward to the next book. The Irish eyes are smiling. Thank you.Book Review: A Fabulous Read

After reading The Mammy, I could not wait to read the Chisellers. I was not disappointed in the least, I couldnt put this book down at all! Its already been passed on to my sister, a very addictive read. Brendan O'Carroll makes all the characters come to life so that you feel as if you know each of them personally and that I had been transported to 1960's Dublin. I cannot wait to get a copy of the Granny!Book Review: This light hearted if not at times tragic novel will have reader laughing, crying and marveling at the strength of friendship an
Summary: 5 Stars
Brendan O'Carroll's The Chisellers is the next in the Agnes Browne books and continues in the wonderful tradition of the Mammy. This will have you laughing along with the spunky Browne Family, whose deadpan humor navigates them through their poverty. This light hearted if not at times tragic novel will have reader laughing, crying and marveling at the strength of friendship and family.
