Where do I begin? I have loved the Mitford books from the very first one! I have lost count as to how many times I have reread them. I know I am not alone. Ms. Karon writes such a plethora of engaging characters, and all so different. This story is told from many points of view, but mostly by Father Tim, Dooley, and Lace. It is interesting to watch Dooley and Lace mature and parent little Jack Tyler. He is such a hoot! It is comforting to find that Father Tim finally decides to really retire and have fun, when he gets called to an unusual temporary job. The ending was beautiful. I hope it isn't the last book. I now have to read all the other books again. That will make my autumn cozy!
I didn't understand the title of this book, but I figured it out. Father Tim just liked being in the same house as Cynthia was even if they weren't in the same room. He just likes âto be where you are (Cynthia).â I feel the same way about my husband.
If you haven't figured it out, I absolutely love this book.
