review 1: I love this book. From the constant internal dialog of all the characters to the uncensored view of the upper class in the early 1900's to the adorable and sometimes exasperating romance stories running thought out this book it was amazing. I will happily and readily read this book again, maybe when I run out of books to read (like that will ever happen) but sooner rather than later. I love'd everything about this book, even the ending that Stella Gibbons tied up in a lovely bow. The ending didn't leave me questioning much of anything about how the characters went on with their lives, that is one thing I hate about some books, they leave far too much at the end for you to figure out/make-up on you own. Like I said I LOVE this book and would recommend it to anyone who likes... more good non-cheesy romance novels with a good amount of give and take.For the record I've never read or even heard of Cold Comfort Farm before I read the intro in this book (found it in a thrift store for a buck), now I am going to find every book by Stella Gibbons I can, starting with CCF.
review 2: I absolutely loved this book. From the vantage point of 2014, it was pure escapism into a world that did, but no longer does, exist. I enjoyed the bracketed asides Gibbons makes, and her description of the English countryside in the Spring is flawless. The characters are enjoyable, and I loved what happened to them all. This is one of those rare books that I will re-read, simply for the pure enjoyment of it. less
