A grumpy old man tries to hold on to what he knows in his little changing town. This was a really lovely story. A host of very individual characters and a lot of heart. I was definitely choked up at the end.

LoverOfLearning On my shelf tainting me. It's on my list of 40 books to read this year so I'll read it soon! 2d

Cuilin This chapter helped me understand how they made a tv show. Tommy and Mr William seem good sorts. The Baker family with their 8 kids, Ruby and Pearl! 2w

Ruthiella @Cuilin I‘ve not seen the show but have wondered what they might have pulled from the book, what they might leave out, what they might embellish… 2w

TheAromaofBooks The story about the guy just wandering off for a YEAR?! I need MORE DETAILS on where he was and on poor Mrs. Macey's sketchy missing husband 😂 2w

willaful Maybe I was spoiled by book 2 but I'm having so much trouble getting interested in this one! Just dying for it to be over already, 2w

KAO @TheAromaofBooks Agreed! Where in the world was this man for an entire YEAR?! And the mystery of Mrs. Macey‘s husband off with “his gentleman” is very suspicious. I‘m betting we never find out more about these, but I hope I‘m wrong! 2w

willaful @KAO Any other author, we definitely would. For this one, odds are against us! 2w

mcctrish Me too @willaful also the abrupt way of introducing characters and then writing “but never fear dear reader, he‘s dead and buried in South Africa “ so I get whiplash 2w

BarbaraJean @TheAromaofBooks @KAO YES! I have so many questions!! @mcctrish All the death previews are grating on me 😆 2w
