Her account is fun, realistic of the work involved and interesting. And though she is not an oyster expert, some good information comes through in a way that is engaging. I have given it three stars to reflect that for a little over half of the book it is definitely worth a read. And I would recommend it even if you are planning to just read the first half. But only three stars here is for a reason.About 2/3s way through she basically reverts to writing about all her encounters with the "fabulous" elite of celebrity chefs and restauranteurs. At this point she simply gushes over her subjects and her being included in whatever scene she is lucky enough to be part of. We get to read breathless lines like: "...a very special appearance from super chef Daniel Boulud, who, during one of his swings through the party, jumped behind the raw bar to shuck oysters with us....Boulud was a party animal whose presence ... turned the crowd from vaguely entertained to hog wild."or"By now I was fully enamored of his style of cooking; by opening a Latin-inspried restaurant he'd completely stolen my heart."I mean, really?At that point it will occur to you that perhaps you have picked up a different book for your read on the train to work; what happened to the book about working on an oyster farm? How did we get back to this pampered woman, when she was beginning to show such promise as a serious person? I can't answer that, but I hope she can really learn to stop writing as if she is on the staff of Boston Magazine. There is potential there. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good *by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on January 11, 2018* I enjoyed the book, easy read, inspirational if you’re interested in oyster aquaculture. Note Duxbury maritime school is not the “largest maritime school on the east coast” ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Oysters Everywhere *by M***H on Reviewed in the United States on October 30, 2019* I have been sailing in Duxbury bay since 1974. I have watched in amazement and curiosity as oyster farming has grown. It is clearly very hard work and includes trial and error and some luck. Weather is always unpredictable. The harbor is buzzing with all the oyster farms and boating. It sometimes is a challenge to avoid the oyster buoys. The book was educational and a reminder of what a great place we live. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/4278051-shucked-life-on-a-new-england-oyster-farm](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/4278051-shucked-life-on-a-new-england-oyster-farm) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-11-12*
