A review by jodilynclayton
In the Company of Others by Jan Karon

3.0

Jan Karon is one of my favorite authors and I really wanted to love this book. Unfortunately, I couldn't work up anything more than a tepid like. I never thought I would say this, but I'm tired of Father Tim. The formula isn't working anymore. The characters were just like characters in her previous novels except flatter somehow. The only thing that changes is geography. Karon said that this is her favorite of all her books. Really? I can imagine the research was more fun--living it up in Ireland, but I think her first couple of books were so much better.
