    About this ebook

    From the bestselling author of The Chronicles of St Mary's. The Nothing Girl has grown up… It’s life as usual at Frogmorton Farm – which is to say that events have passed the merely eccentric and are now galloping headlong towards the completely bizarre. Once again Jenny struggles to stay afloat in the stormy seas of matrimony with her husband, Russell Checkland, together with an unlikely mix of Patagonian Attack Chickens, Jack the Sad Donkey, and Mrs Crisp’s mysterious boyfriend. The old favourites are still around, of course. There’s Marilyn the Omnivorous Donkey, Russell’s ex-girlfriend Don’t Call Me Franny, and the neurotic Boxer, currently failing to deal with butterfly trauma. So nothing much is new … except for the mysterious figure dogging Jenny’s steps and who, if she didn’t know better, she would swear was her sinister cousin Christopher, last seen being hurled from the house by her wayward husband. He couldn’t possibly be stupid enough to come back and try again … Could he?

      If you came to Sam Neill’s memoir without knowing the first thing about it, chapter one would hold a terrible shock. It begins amusingly enough: a lovely anecdote about his daughter Elena being asked at school when she was little about what her dad d

      The only reason this took three days to finish, is because I had to prepare for a birthday party here on Sunday, and then spend from noon to ten p.m. with the party person. I think I went to bed exhausted after that lol.
      This series is wonderful, and I enjoy the two books tremendously. I loved the first novel so much, I had to purchase it. The second was bought a couple weeks later. I’ve been saving them for a rainy day, and it’s certainly been rainy a.f. in Iowa...!
      I’m always spellbound by Taylor’s novels. Seriously, if you haven’t at least read this novel yet (and of course the first one in the series first), please do. You will probably love them as much as I do. They bring me joy. And not the character in the novel, either...!
      Lucy Price-Lewis is the narrator for these novels in the Frogmorton series, and she is perfect for them. I enjoyed her also.

      4 stars, and highly recommended to all.
