Relation During Books The Complete James Herriot (All Creatures Great and Small #1-8)
The ultimate comfort books. I read these several times growing up and they still make me laugh and cry as if I've never read them before.I often ring my mum to talk through them again with something like "I'm just at the bit with Tristan and the pipe!" (I think between us we could recite the whole series!) and I had a text the other day from an initially very sceptical friend, who has bought the whole series and read them again since I recommended them a year ago, saying "Just crying with laughter on the tube at the Cat Wrapping bit!"
So well written, real, and emotive. I can't recommended Herriot highly enough!

The first two were very interesting but by the third my mind was wandering. The writing felt monotonous and one dimensional with the events detailed seeming too similar to each other to be of any real aid to these stories.I know these stories by heart. They are my ultimate comfort stories...I believe I have read them during every major life transition. They are warm and familiar, like going home. If you have never heard the audio books read by Christopher Timothy, you've yet to truly experience James Herriott! He brings the Yorkshire accents to life.
Nice to read them again, really enjoyed them.

James Herriot is a treasure, these books are so wonderful
By far, some of the best animal stories ever written. I never get tired of re-reading this series every few years.
Old friends! These books are like chicken soup and heating blankets, every time I'm just disgusted with the world and the people in it I read one of these books and I feel a little better!
