The Room with the Second-Best View
The Room with the Second-Best View might be my favorite in the series. I’ve really grown to love these characters, and we see a lot of growth in them in this third book.

The All-Girl Filling Station’s Last Reunion
There is so much to love about this story. Themes include family life during WWII, Polish immigrant culture, contemporary Southern small-town life, 1940s Hollywood, stunt piloting—and the marvelous theme of women flying, literally, to new heights.

Bathed in Prayer is a standalone book that brings prayers from the Mitford series together under one cover.
