Can’t believe The Kitchen House or The Chilbury Ladies Choir didn’t make it.

The entire chronicles of st Mary's should be on this list. As it's not, I'll recommend it. The first book is 'Just one damn thing after another'. You're welcome.
OMG what an awesome list, have already read some of them, but will definitely check out the others, Have you checked out the new show on PBS "The Great American Read 2018" It's amazing & the top list of 100 books is fantastic. Everyone should check it out.

I really like this list - I've already read about half of the books and thoroughly enjoyed them! I'm looking forward to reading some of the others.

There is a second book called Glory Over Everything that was also very good and continues the story of the Kitchen House
I've already read 19 of these books (some of which are even on my "favorites" shelf), and I have 3 of the others on my TBR list. I feel very accomplished at this point, or at least like I'm on the right track :)
At every book club where suggestions are requested, someone says The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society.
I made a list of some of the best books we have read at the RFP book club if ya'll want to check it out:https://www.goodreads.com/list/show/1...
