I was a short story, but well worth the read! It's an excellent addition to the Mitford collection. It really gets into the thoughts of Esther. If you want to dive deeper into the residents of Mitford, don't pass up a chance to get this book!
For those readers familiar with Jan Karon's Mitford series this book is a treat - a chance to get to "know" Esther Bolick a bit better and get the recipe for her famous Orange Marmalade Layer Cake!
For those unfortunate few who have not yet met the folks of Mitford this is a grand introduction. Ms. Karon writes in a warm homey style that lets each character seem like a personal friend.
Whether this is your first taste of the series (or of Esther's cake) - you are sure to want more!
