A piece of perfection!
Does Miss Read ever disappoint? I don't think so! The world of Thrush Green feels both dreamy, unreal and distant, and yet so very real and full of characters you know from your own life.
The writing is beautiful, funny, gentle yet razor-sharp, and occasionally sprinkled with acerbic comments that make you roar with laughter. Miss Read transforms what some might call mundane affairs of village life into a gripping and exciting story. And Gwen Watford's reading of the book is simply flawless.
I cannot find any faults in the whole Thrush Green series. Every single book is a piece of perfection.

Wonderful characters revisited
The literary equivalent of a good cup of tea,
'It sounds to me,' said Harold, with rare male perspicacity, 'that Agnes may be a little in love with this Teddy herself.'
'Good heavens!' cried his wife, deeply shocked. 'Of course, she isn't! She has the cat, after all!'
I must mention it is one of the grittier novels touching on challenging issues including dementia. But it is all dealt with by kindness and thoughtfulness and the sting is removed.
It is another visit to some well-loved fictional friends.

Bask in nostalgia
I love Miss Read books. They are an oasis in a brash modern world. Some of the references are of their time and wouldn't be acceptable now but this doesn't spoil my enjoyment. Gwen Watson has the perfect voice as Narrator. I'm completely absorbed in the goings on of the residents of Thrush Green and Lulling. Like sinking into a warm bath or enjoying a cup of hot chocolate.
