All Creatures Great and Small by James Herriot

4.0

At first, I thought this book would be a memoir in traditional novel format, telling a story with a beginning, middle, and end. But after a few chapters the narrative style became episodic. There is a chronological flow, but the chapters aren't often related, which makes it easy to read just one chapter at a time. The stories are often humorous, yet sometimes sad, but always real. I look forward to reading the rest of the series.
