This is a very family-friendly book that I enjoyed reading. It is not a mystery but rather a story of a small town and the folks who live there. Charming.

This is the 8th novel in the best-selling Mitford Years series. I loved every one of these books, but this is special because it is a Christmas story. When I finished the series I was sad to leave these friends behind. Write more, Jan Karon!!!

Out of the Mitford Series, this was one of my favorites. A yearly reread at Christmas.

First time I visited Mitford, and I'm going BaCk!! I was looking for a good read for the CHistmas Spirit Season. The Title caught my eye and the excerpt about the story of rescuing a creche. Finding that it was the 8th book was hard on my OC which manages my "must read the series from the beginning," but championing that I read it anyway, knowing I wouldn't be able to read the series that quickly. I was pleasantly surprised that the book was able to stand very well on it's own. Also for those of different religions, than the Main Character Father Tim, but are of the same faith in Jesus Christ; This story was WONDERFUL! Don't let religious affiliations stop you from enjoying this wonderful and thoughtful book!! I'm looking forward to going back and enjoying the rest.
