Miss Buncle's Book
"Delightful, charming, warm, cosy – those are the type of words I would use to describeMiss Buncle's Book. " -She Reads Novels" It is a sweet story that I would highly recommend to anyone who enjoys light, cozy reads." -The Book Garden"Recommended as a cosy, comfortable and old-fashioned read." -Good Reading Guide"I smiled, I giggled, I laughed out loud, I tsk'd tsk'd at some of the characters' antics but most of all I loved the book! I can't wait to read another" -Pudgy Penguin Perusals"People who enjoy the humor of The Help by Kathryn Stockett or those who enjoy a look at a small town community, such as that in the much older Cranford by Elizabeth Gaskell, may also enjoy this book." -Rebecca Reads" This vintage book, which was written in the 1930's, is an absolute charmer, like its main character. " -book addiction"I highly recommend this for readers of sweet romances. But I also recommend it for those who would like a change of pace, are looking for something light and amusing, or find appealing the promise of a book that has the charm of vintage photographs and the comfort of a hug. " -Just Janga"This was my first story by D.E. Stevenson and I wasn't disappointed. This story goes to show that real life can be mirrored from a story and become art. " -Luxury Reading"Miss Buncle's Bookis total escapism. Sometimes that's just what you're looking for." -Alex In Leeds"Miss Buncle's Book is a light-hearted, very English cosy type of story with a lovely old-fashioned feel to it ..... just right for those times you need to take a break from serious reading or want only to put your feet up with a cup of tea and relax." -Tell Me a Story"If you like "Miss Pettigrew" or gentle books about bygone times which were actually written in those times and which take their time to set up the action, then this might be for you. Watch as Barbara Buncle blossoms and finds within herself the strength that's always been there, just waiting for its chance. RECOMMENDED READ " -Dear Author"If you want to read a cute/funny, charmingly delightful book, pick up Miss Buncle's Book and devote an afternoon to reading. You will finish this book in that afternoon!" -Book Lovers Paradise"Thoroughly pleasant" -Shelf Love"Pour your tea and settle in because, from the opening pages, you'll be drawn into this small village, set somewhere in England, sometime between the wars. You'll probably stay the night. You'll definitely want a sweater. Because this book is hard to put down-and, despite what Miss Buncle may say, it is truly, truly imaginative." -History Undressed"If you like a cozy warm caricature of life, try this sweet, easy story!" -Reviews by Martha's Bookshelf"If you own this one and haven't yet read it (Darlene I am looking at you), it is time to take it off the shelf and get to it. " -My Porch"I read somewhere that this book was described as a "cosy" read and I think that is the perfect word to use forMiss Buncle's Book. It is a cosy fun lighthearted book where nothing happens and yet everything seems to change. " -Paperback Dolls"Hopefully these new editions will open Stevenson's books to a whole new audience. They deserve it! " -A Lovely Shore Breeze"I stayed up until 1 am reading this one because I couldn't stand to put it down, not because it was so gripping but because it was so irresistibly funny and I had to know what was going to become of all of them." -Glass of Fancy
