Much needed escapism!,

This review is from: Village Affairs (The Fairacre Series #13) (Hardcover)
This book is a wonderful way to spend a lazy summer afternoon, or a rainy Saturday. Village Affairs by Miss Read is the second book in her beloved Fairacre series, all about a British schoolmistress and her post-WWII adventures. Folks who think nothing ever happens in a village are dead wrong. No sex, drugs or rock n roll but a delightful cast of characters that will leave you smiling and relaxed. In these perilous times, it's nice to spend a few minutes in a safe, serene world.
