Mitford Mania


Maybe it's just because I've got time to read, for once.  But the Mitford books have pulled me in, and I've not read this much fiction at one time in years.  Karon writes with such good characterization that the reader feels like she is right there in Mitford and could say hello to these people on the streets.  That's great writing.

Another great quality is that each book, though secular overall, has strong Christian elements, including the plan of salvation, and many Scripture texts.

Good writing + Christian emphasis = worthwhile fiction.  Even if it's not my usual fare.
