The Matchmaker of Perigord - Julia Stuart
With the Mumsnet
Book Club already thriving, we thought it about time we started reviewing grown up books and for this category we're looking for books published in the last year or so that are easy reads, something uplifting to take to a sunny beach, or to pick up in a quiet moment at home (should you be lucky enough to have one of those). At some point when we've reached a critical mass we'll be handing out a dazzling literary award to the winning book (watch out Mr Booker) so please add as many reviews as you like and feel free to comment on other folks' choices. As ever, if you have any suggestions for new categories you'd like to see, please send them over to contactus@mumsnet.com.

Brilliant! Quirky humour.
It's a charming story of people in a time warp in a small French village, but the brilliance is in the way it is written.
Places are never referred to just as 'the fountain' but 'the fountain-said-to-cure-gout', à la mode de 'Allo 'Allo (not sure about my French grammar there).
I grinned a lot whilst reading it!
