Join #1 New York Times bestselling author Jan Karon on a trip to Mitford—a southern village of local characters so heartwarming and hilarious you'll wish you lived right next door.At last, Mitford's rector and lifelong bachelor, Father Tim, has married his talented and vivacious neighbor, Cynthia. Now, of course, they must face love's challenges: new sleeping arrangements for Father Tim's sofa-sized dog, Cynthia's urge to decorate the rectory Italian-villa-style, and the growing pains of the thrown-away boy who's become like a son to the rector. Add a life-changing camping trip, the arrival of the town's first policewoman, and a new computer that requires the patience of a saint, and you know you're in for another engrossing visit to Mitford—the little town that readers everywhere love to call home.

"Read for my author a year online book club. I've enjoyed seeing Father Tim and Cynthia's relationship change and deepen, and I have liked seeing the interactions with the various townspeople. Mitford is world building of a different sort—small town, down-to-earth characters, and lots of goodness peppered with mild conflict. These have been peaceful reads for me this year."
