A question about Miss Pettigrew

[highlandcoo]

I want to give a friend, who is going into hospital for a not-very-pleasant op, a little present. Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day is often mentioned on here as a lovely book, however I haven't read it myself.

Just want to know whether it's generally uplifting and positive - I don't want anything with illness or a sad ending on this occasion. Would it be appropriate .. and if not, any other suggestions gratefully received.

Thanks

Oh yes it is uplifting and positive.

Great read

Thanks DearGirl - I'll go ahead and order it

It is lovely - I'm always banging on about it on here! :)

if anybody knows any similar books, I'd love to hear about them too.

It's a gorgeous book.

Feel good and fabulous! Other positive Persephones are Greenery Street and Its Hard to be Hip Over 30.

It is a fab book, so funny. Glad I saw this post I think I will re read mine.

LOVE Persephone books.
