Started this wonderful book on the way to the north Norfolkcoast with mollie and her brother who we have rescued and called Teddy he‘s now in his forever home & this is his first ever trip to the beach. I‘d never heard of Helen Thomas. Had to read the synopsis and Google her(good old Google)her writing is full of romance & wonder of early days love & nature & all the simple delights of life

If so what‘s your thoughts ? In a modern world of consumerism it‘s refreshing & wonderful to read of how people lived without the possessions we have today & to think nothing of it. 2y
jlhammar Such sweet puppies! Glad you‘re enjoying it so far. Great point about the contrast to our modern day ideals and consumerism. I appreciated that as well (even if it did sound stressful at times to not have a steady/traditional income). She was so good at improvising and making the best of things. 2y
Tamra Yes, I agree there is a marked difference! We can definitely do with less. (Aside from books, which even they made an exception for!) 2y
LeahBergen Omg! Look at those two sweet babies! ❤️❤️ I really enjoyed this read. Good point about consumerism and how little they actually needed to survive. 2y
BookNAround Mollie and Teddy are lovely. 2y
