This preview checks nearly all the boxes on my "comfort reads" checklist! Set in a small English village during WWII with a cast of colorful characters and a tenacious, spunky protagonist Olive Bright, who seems most worthy of her descriptive surname. Throw in references to classic literature, domestic details, and a possible mystery and we have a recipe for a delightful escape read. I am especially looking forward to reading more about Miss Husselbee's snoopy antics.

The cover... is boring. I'm so sorry to admit this. It communicates the WWII era, but does not capture the spunk and fun this book is sure to deliver.
