I have read Middle Window - once, many years ago. Never felt any urge to revisit! I have also read her life of Christ, though I've forgotten what it's called now, and don't much recommend that either. I think I was being a bit of an obsessive completist when I sought that out.

The house descriptions are wonderful, especially when they first visit and start imagining what it might look like. I have wanted to live in a Pilgrim Inn ever since.

Hmm, now started thinking about which of her books are favourites - The Dean's Watch is definitely one, along with Towers in the Mist and City of Bells, and of course Henrietta's House. Gentian Hill I liked as a child, I think partly because I had a nice old hardback of it, and loved the descriptions of the places and the farm and the animals and things like Stella's sewing basket. I haven't re-read it for years though.
