Delightful

This book is quite a sweet surprise. I found myself laughing out loud at the antics of my two favorite characters Dooley and Barnabus and can't wait to read the rest of the series. I read reviews of those who gave it one or two stars who said it was too sugary or unreal and to that I say - I...

Love the Mitford books -- but can be slightly uncomfortable for a Catholic

I love Jan Karon's Mitford books -- they're so well-written, so sweet and touching without being cloying, so laugh-out-loud funny at times, so full of sincere religious feeling without being heavy-handed. There's one thing I have to say, though -- as a Catholic, now that I've read most of her...
