A Light in the Window (The Mitford Years, Book 2) description
A Light in the Window is the second installment in this enormously popular series about a small-town rector, Father Tim, and the heartwarming cast of characters surrounding him. This time Father Tim, a lifelong bachelor, finds his heart distracted by his free-spirited neighbor Cynthia, but his stomach and the rectory cash box are distracted by Edith, a wealthy widow who is wooing the rector with love potion casseroles. At every turn, including when a brooding Irish cousin decides to move in, Father Tim must decide whether he will practice what he preaches. Fans of the series say they long to buy real estate in Mitford, just so they can live next door to these funny and endearing characters and feel the embrace of such a loving community. But what author Jan Karon probably knows, and many readers are starting to figure out, is that the integrity and solid Christian values that these characters possess can be found in just about every neighborhood, and with inspiration like this book, anyone can build their own Mitford community. --Gail Hudson |

I read this as soon as I finished Book I, and was not disappointed. The story of Father Tim and his neighbor Cindy continued. Karon portrayed the pitfalls of falling in love can be just as difficult at 60 as during the teen years. After a rocky beginning, the couple begins to cement their relationship through a series of beautiful letters over a period of months when she goes away to New York.
Other characters' stories also continued. Although Mitford is a 'feel-good' read, Karon doesn't shy away from difficult situations and near-tragedies. She's a gifted storyteller. As someone who grew up in the Episcopal Church, but who hasn't returned to it in decades, it was nice to revisit it through the eyes of Father Tim. |
