When I recently enthused about discovering Nicolas Rhea's Constable series, and bewailed the fact that there was only one at my library, Charlotte at Charlotte's Library suggested D. E. Stevenson as good "English comfort reading." I found a few at my library and started off with Miss Buncle's Book. I love it! A mixture of P. G. Wodehouse, Miss Read, and Mary Roberts Rinehart's Miss Tish books. Happily, my library system has a few more to feed my new obsession. Thanks Charlotte!

I'm so glad! I am in the middle of the first Rhea book, and enjoying it--so thanks in return!
