5.0 out of 5 stars Comfortably Satisfied, August 6, 2004
This review is from: The Mitford Years, Books 1-6 (At Home in Mitford / A Light in the Window / These High, Green Hills / Out to Canaan / A New Song / A Common Life) (Paperback)
I remember when my mother asked me if I had heard of the Mitford series. At the time I had heard of the series only vaguely and not enough to tempt me to begin reading. It just so happened that on this 18 hour trip I looked inside my mother's bag and found the first book of the series. I eyed it with curiosity and cautiously flipped open the book to begin reading. Amazingly, time went by without my notice. I found myself sucked into the lives of the characters. While reading I could not help comparing the characters and the town to my own real life neighbors and small town in which I live and discovered some very real similarities. I thoroughly enjoyed and related to the biblical faith expressed in the life of Father Tim. Yes, the community in which I find myself expresses and lives out the same kind of faith. I am thankful that my whole life and heart have changed because of the personal belief I have in the Bible. (Very much like Father Tim.) Since that very long car ride I have read almost all of the series. I strongly recommend this series.

5.0 out of 5 stars A soothing balm for a troubled world, February 27, 2003
By 
"merryjule" (Marietta, GA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Mitford Years, Books 1-6 (At Home in Mitford / A Light in the Window / These High, Green Hills / Out to Canaan / A New Song / A Common Life) (Paperback)
I just finished reading the Mitford series. The books were given to me almost a year ago and sat on my shelf. Recently, I had a personal crisis and have spent much alone time which allowed me time to read the entire series in less than 6 weeks. These are not deep books but often the simple is what we really need. The series provided an escape which could be perceived as a shallow endeavor but reflecting on the deep sprirtual undertones, I found the books inspiring and healing for me during a trying time personally and in light of our national situation as well... I would recommend these books for anyone who is looking for something better.

5.0 out of 5 stars Blessings, February 24, 2006
This review is from: The Mitford Years, Books 1-6 (At Home in Mitford / A Light in the Window / These High, Green Hills / Out to Canaan / A New Song / A Common Life) (Paperback)
These books are the most uplifting books I've ever read. Father Tim is human and believable as a Episcopalian priest while imparting spiritual wisdom by the page. The characters become friends who will touch your heart. This is my second set, I loaned the first one out and never got it back. I loved them so much I ordered another set and am on my third reading. As an avid reader I enjoy most everything, from Robert B Parker (another favorite) to Tom Clancey. So I understand folks who prefer action or mystery books may not care for this type of literature. But if you are a "people" book consumer, these are a must read. Just try one to get started and go from there if you like them. I think that you will also find yourself blessed.
