Thornyhold by Mary Stewart

4.0

Thornyhold is a real comfort read; rather melodramatic in places, it is both compelling and easy to read. It reminded me a little of the wonderful Lolly Willowes, along with the Miss Read series, and the quainter parts of Enid Blyton books. Whilst the storyline is rather implausible, it is an enjoyable and lighthearted read, which has been well written and characterised.
