Tyler's Row

Journal Entry 1 by herrgirl from Vale of White Horse, Oxfordshire United Kingdom on Tuesday, November 2, 2010
The two-hundred-year-old cottages known as Tyler's Row, with charming leaded-glass windows and an arched thorn hedge over the gateway, are supposed to provide a haven of peace for their new owners, Peter and Diana Hale. They plan to convert the middle two cottages into one, to create their own rural refuge. But beset by carpenters, plumbers, electricians, and bills, as well as their neighboring tenants, the redoubtable Sergeant Barnaby and the sour Mrs. Fowler, both longtime residents of Tyler's Row, the couple soon have cause to ponder their decision. Fairacre is not the utopia they expect, and the Hales must adapt to ordinary life in a village full of extraordinary quirks.

Lovely, peaceful English countryside with all its nice, gentle or even peculiar characters :) Easy to read, quite calming really.

Sending to Ronya next. Also taking part of the 52-weeks releasing challenge. My theme for this week (16 ) is the writer herself. Miss Read, Dora Jessie Saint, was born this week 100 hundred years ago. Her birthday was 17th of April 1913. She died April 7th, 2012, at the age of 99 years!

This book is noe off to Niksu, hope you'll enjoy it.
Thanks for the books, Ronya!
I've never read Miss Read's books before but this turned out to be a pleasant read and very suitable for lazy summer days. I've got other book of hers waiting on my bookshelf but I'll probably wait a bit before starting the next one.
I have two Miss Read books allready. So I took this one too with me from the book swap table in Pori UnCon 17.-18.8.2013.
