Negative Positive
Title: Definitely not up to Jan Karon's usual standards
Review: I read all five of her first books and absolutely loved them. I was so excited to see another come out that I ignored the reviews and ordered the book immediately. Having just finished the book, I walked away wanting. This latest look into the life of Father Tim didn't have nearly the character that the first five books had. The citizens of Mitford were barely visable and I really don't understand why Ms. Karon chose to write the next volume smack in the middle of two previous books. I didn't miss the wedding when I was reading the other five. I would have much more enjoyed to know what Father Tim and his followers are up to now. It seems like Ms. Karon didn't put much thought into this book. She just pumped it out to keep her readers happy. This certainly won't stop me from buying the next book. I just hope that Ms. Karon gets back on track.
