The second Fairacre novel introduces us to more of the village characters with each chapter representing a month in the village calendar. Our narrator, Miss Read, relates all the village happenings with good humour, even when it involves the fact that the villagers are trying to marry her off or sheâs battling with her miserable cleaner at the school. Gentle, feel-good reading.

Jan Karon Miss Read once again transports readers to the picturesque English village of Fairacre with her Village Diary. Having received a beautiful diary for Christmas, she proceeds to set down a year's worth of observations and experiences as the village school's headmistress. And what a year it is! As the villagers prepare for their country pageant, Fairacre welcomes many newcomers, such as the headstrong Amy; the earnest new infants' teacher, Miss Jackson; and Mr. Mawnewhom the villagers would like to see the reluctant Miss Read marry...
