At Home In Mitford by Izz News This is the first book in a series of 9, and my first time to read a book by the author. At Home in Mitford is a sweet story about a fictional town called Mitford where everybody seems to know everybody, and everybody helps everybody. The main character is Father Tim, the local Episcopalian rector, and the story revolves mostly around him - how he adopted a dog he named Barnabas, looked after an 11-year old boy, got interested in his new neighbor, skipped his daily exercise, and had his car repaired, among many others. The characters in Mitford are mostly lovable, even Homeless Hobbes, and the love stories are a delight to read. One thing I have observed is that except maybe for Dooley, the 11-year old boy left under the care of Father Tim, all the other characters are adults, most are elderly. But one just has to laugh at their childlike personalities. I am reminded of the Anne of Green Gables series while reading this book. More in details http://izznews.com
