Product Description:
Readers of the nine bestselling Mitford novels have been captivated by Jan Karon’s “gift for illuminating the struggles that creep into everyday lives—along with a vividly imagined world” (People). They learned quickly that “after you’ve spent time in Mitford, you’ll want to come back” (Chicago Tribune). Millions eagerly awaited the publication of each novel, relishing the story of the bookish and bighearted Episcopal priest and the extraordinary fullness of his seemingly ordinary life.
Now, Jan Karon enchants us with the story of the newly retired priest’s spur-of-the-moment adventure. For the first time in decades, Father Tim returns to his birthplace, Holly Springs, Mississippi, in response to a mysterious, unsigned note saying simply: “Come home.” Little does he know how much these two words will change his life. A story of long-buried secrets, forgiveness, and the wonder of discovering new people, places, and depth of feeling, Home to Holly Springs will enthrall new readers and longtime fans alike.

This book was great. I have to admit that I had a fear that I'd be disappointed after reading the entire Mitford series but I was not disappointed at all. It was different from the Mitford series but still a pleasure to read. Sure, we didn't have the Mitford regulars in the story, but in a way it was nice. After all, how long can you keep Mitford going? I hated to see this story end and I anxiously await the next book.

[I knew I enjoy Jan Karon's books- the Mitford series so wanted to try this one. I bought it for a gift but read it before mailing it I like it very much & believe the family to whom I sent it will enjoy it also. These books may not be the greatest literature in the world but they're so readable without the dirty language so many authors feel they have to use.

If you enjoyed the Mitford series, you will certainly enjoy this story of Father Tim's growing up years presented alongside the continuing present-day story from the last of the Mitford series. Jan Karon has once again written a delightful, inspiring story that offers humor and wonderful insight.

I am an avid fan of Jan Karon. IMHO, this is the best novel she has written yet. I was a little afraid to read it after reading a couple of reviews by people who were unhappy she had left Mitford behind. This book kept me on the edge of my seat, wondering what was going to happen next. Wonderful surprises were in store! I thoroughly enjoyed learning about Father Tim's past. I am looking forward to the next books in the series. I will admit that everything fit together too neatly sometimes, but one ... Read More

I am a Mitford Series fan and was looking forward to another book about my favorite characters. I'm disappointed in this book. In our every day world we see and hear constantly about the bad and unseemly things going on and there are plenty of books that take these things for their story line. I don't read those books. I've enjoyed the Mitford books because they tell a good story without all the bad and ugly in the world. Unfortunately, Ms. Karon has taken my favorite character and put him right ... Read More
