this is the best, uplifting series.

I read book 9 in this series and loved it but had to come back and read all the previous books. This series is just amazing and beautiful and thought-provoking. I am absolutely enjoying the characters and the introspection these stories bring about.

Really good

I am enjoying the continuing story of the characters of St Ninian's. It all seems so real when you are reading it. It's like living the story yourself. I love the humility of the staff. They have great skills and hearts and it shows everywhere. Plus, i love a good ending, especially when it seemed impossible. Loving this series!
