A Common Life: The Wedding Story

I loved reading about Father Tim's and Cynthia's wedding. Humor, joy, sensitive prose lovingly written. And a sense of peace over all. Best to read the first two or three books in the series, so you know the characters and why they think as they do.

I am pleased that I received my book in a timely manner, and it is "like new" as described. Great job! Happy New Year!

Loved the series

I read the Midford seies some years ago, visiting my 2. cousin in Thornton, Pennsylania. The books were didferent from the Christian literature I'm used to read. I fell completely in love With them! I enjoyed so much the humour, the sweetness and the tenderness in the books that seemed to envelope everything. The way Father Timothy was towards his parisheners, and how he tried to help everybodyi - and at the same time he was so human and so wonderfully sweet and funny. Then there are all the other charactres; I cried with them and laughed With thwm - in fact I don't know any other books that have made me laugh so much. I read at night, and disturbed my husband's sleep because I couldn't stop laughing. Most of al,l the books hit my heartt and soul regarding faith and how to pray and live.Now I've read them again, and I enjoyed them perhaps even more: it was like meeting old, dear friends. It also brought back sweet memories from my stay in Pennsylvania. My cousin is older than me. And wiser! I love her dearly; we are like soul mates.As for this last book; "A common life", it was good in the way it kind of summond up the different charactres and their ways. But I was sad when I had read it, because then there were no more books to read, and I have to say goddbye to Timothy and Cynthia; a real princess. I wish I could have coffee and a nice chat with her, perhaps she'd teach me a few tricks about painting...

This was, as usual, an enjoyable read. I so like following the meanderings of Father Tim and Cynthia, along with all the other characters.

I love Jan Karon's writing .. She has a way that makes You get right into all the characters and describes the way she has made the town of "Mitford" . (not a real town) come to life. Yu can picture it's beauty . Her writing is special as I am an Anglican so I know what she is writing about. This book was about the wedding of Father Tim to Cynthia. Loved it !! She even writes the Hymns that I know off by heart. Looking forward to reading the rest of these books.

I love the series. I love the characters and can imagine each one. I grew up near Boone, NC. This is like looking in on my family.

It's a Jan Karon book, if you like her writing, you will like this book. However the narration almost made me stop listening. Voice is irritating. Sometimes you can't hear, then suddenly it is way too loud, without context from the text. Narrator should not sing...

I adore the Mitford series, and this book is a must-read for fans as it is all about the wedding of Father Tim and Cynthia.

Another gem from Jan Karon. In the Wedding Story we feel as though we are a part of the wedding of Father Tim and the lovely Cynthia. It's a joy to read about this couple, who are just everything to each other.For me, escaping to Mitford and spending time with all it's lovely characters is one of my favourite pastimes.

Arrived on the 18th Nov all as described seems to be a rare editionBook for my father so he's happy

Yet another fantastic book in the Mitford series. Every bit as good as the first five.

Good read
