The Durrells is a good watch. The book was good too. And The Larkins which was somehow connected to the Darling Buds Of May. Well you're like me who loves this stuff. All I can recommend now are books that are similar.
Nella Last and Helen Forrester are 2 authors that wrote books that are some of the best reads I've ever read.
I've had both of those authors recommended to me before. I've been looking for my next read since I didn't line anything up after an indugent reread of Phillip Pullmans' series, so maybe I might make a start with those. In saying that I have a sneaky suspicion that I read The Latchkey Kid by Forrester many moons ago.
