Judgment Out Of Books Over the Gate (Fairacre #5)

This is the 5th book of the Fairacre series and is just as delightful as the other books. This books deals with stories told over gates in the villages. True or falsehoods? Fun books to read.

Im finally back in the Fairacre series, and as usual, I wonder what kept me away for so long (probably the fact that this series is only found at the regional library branches). Over the Gate is about the stories told by various Fairacre residents to Miss Read as she goes about her job as the headmistress of the school.The stories in Over The Gate could standalone, if not for the fact that Miss Read ties them all together. Its presented as a series of events, but to be honest, you could probably

More collection of stories told to Miss Read 'over ' various gates in the little village of Fairacre, but with all the usual beloved characters.

Besides the normal everyday happenings, this book from the Fairacre series includes numerous stories from the village's history. The array is diverse: humorous, sad, ghostly, outlandish, just plain odd. While they're interesting this is definitely not the usual comforting fare you tend to expect from Miss Read. 4.25 stars

This is the sixth book I have read by this author; fifth in this series. Enjoyably, but less so than earlier books, so time for a rest from this series I think.

Solid, enjoyable read. I am growing to love the characters of Fairacre.

Glad to have 'stumbled upon' this book at a book fair. This is the first Miss Read book that I have read. It's a delightful collection of English village stories which you can read at the end of a hard day and feel refreshed. My favourites were : Strange But True?, Mrs Next-Door, A Tale of Love, The Fairacre Ghost, Outlook Unsettled and The Wayfarer.My copy had a bonus read consisting of Fairacre Festival, which was also heart-warming!
