Loved this--beautifully written. In each chapter the author relates a memory and delicately pulls apart the layers of farm life, Christmas tradition, and connection to God. Each layer is beautiful in its own way. I think this will become a book I want to read every Christmas.
This is an every year Advent read for me. I love this book and the other two in this series. In the beginning of the book the author invites you in with " the latchstring is out at The Farm In Lucy." I'm glad it is. I love to have a cuppa and read this inviting, thoughtful book.
