Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

You would either like Miss Reads books or hate them so I suspect most of my friends would be amongst the latter,n

What other book might you compare Miss Clare Remembers to, and why?

Miss Marple without the murder & mayhem

What about Gwen Watford’s performance did you like?

Her voice is incredibly 1950s upper middle class but her talent is undeniable.the perfect voice for what are very English novels & rather class conscious ones at that

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Not really ,I don't get moved easily by fictional situations

Any additional comments?

I've read everyone of the Fairacre & Thrush Green novels,I've also listened to them all on audio.Not the kind of novels usually associated with we males & a retired miner to boot but I enjoy them as quite a lot of men do though some would deny it.Pure escapism int an England lost long ago if it ever actually existed,nothing dramatic ever happens no one is really nasty,cosy would be the most accurate description of these books & none the worse for that in today's un cosy world.

Wonderful story of Miss Clare the schoolteacher. Interesting accounts of the world wars and as always with Miss Read, the insights are exceptional.

Interesting and touching

Another excellent written book,a difficult one to put down, I found the historical details very interesting how they had been woven in the story without it being a history lesson.
