Once again, a very GOOD story

Just like the Mitford Series this book is relaxing and enjoyable.
It moves in new directions with same tone and style as other Father Tim books. I am anxious for next release.


WONDERFUL

If you have read about Father Tim in the Mitford books, you will love catching up. It was one of those that I had to finish right away.

She's Done it Again!!

I just stayed up late and finished "Home to Holly Springs." I must confess that I checked it out from the library, for the first time NOT buying the latest Karon book as I've done in the past, because I just couldn't believe she could pull off another storyline as well as she's done in the past. But she did...I'll be buying my own copy soon.

The characters are refreshing and easy to relate to, the plot lines didn't seem at all like I've "been there, read that", like so many lengthy series can lapse into. And sure, everything gets tied up neatly by the end (yet not tritely), which is what I wanted and why I read, for an escape from the unsolvable trials of life.

This was an uplifting story about going home and discovering that lifetime hurts can be healed. Amen to that!

Little boy lost

I really enjoyed this book by Jan Karon. There were a lot of people from his boyhood included. I enjoyed meeting them and finding out about his boyhood years.

Readers of the nine bestselling Mitford novels have been captivated by Jan Karon?s ?gift for illuminating the struggles that creep into everyday lives?along with a vividly imagined world? (People). They learned quickly that ?after you?ve spent time in Mitford, you?ll want to come back? (Chicago Tribune). Millions eagerly awaited the publication of each novel, relishing the story of the bookish and bighearted Episcopal priest and the extraordinary fullness of his seemingly ordinary life.

Now, Jan Karon enchants us with the story of the newly retired priest?s spur-of-the-moment adventure. For the first time in decades, Father Tim returns to his birthplace, Holly Springs, Mississippi, in response to a mysterious, unsigned note saying simply: ?Come home.? Little does he know how much these two words will change his life. A story of long-buried secrets, forgiveness, and the wonder of discovering new people, places, and depth of feeling, Home to Holly Springs will enthrall new readers and longtime fans alike.
