Review: The British Way
Rating: 3 out of 5
Date: 10 10, 2012
Two items are essential to me: setting where I enjoy placing myself and characters I can like or detest. This novel set in a typical British village with a slew of unique characters fit the bill. I found the book to be a slow, enjoyable read. I did appreciate the blending of the mystery with the hint of romance as Libby's natural nosiness and relatively clear thinking was blunted a bit by her closeness to Ben and his extended family. Although the book is part of a series, it stands alone well and does not make one feel the need to go back and buy previous ones to understand the situation (persons or place)fully.
