Publisher's summary

Marriage to her publisher, Arthur Abbott, has done nothing to stop Barbara Buncle from involving herself in the lives of her neighbours.

After leaving Silverstream and moving to London, Barbara and Arthur are enjoying their newly wedded bliss, but not the city life. The only solution to their problem? Returning to the country. Silverstream is out of the question, but Barbara eventually finds the perfect candidate in the town of Wandlebury.

After falling in love with the town, and the run-down Archway House, the Abbotts move in and make it their home. Barbara doesn’t intend to get mixed up with those around her, again, but can’t help falling into those scrapes, often with humorous consequences!

Yay

This book, like all those in this series, is a scream. Listen to all four!

Even better

I very much enjoyed the audiobook version of Miss Buncle's Book, so was delighted to find Patricia Gallimore's reading of the sequel, Miss Buncle Married. I was delighted to discover that she did an even better job reading this book than the first in the series! The characters come to life, and take the listener to the English Village of Wandlebury, where we and Miss Buncle, now Mrs Abbott, get to meet her new neighbors and experience village life to the full.

The Second book in the Miss Buncle Series

Wonderful book great narration Read Miss Buncles Book if you can first as the characters continue the story in this sequel.

Another great book by D.E. Stevenson

I recently discovered D.E Stevenson and I'm so happy I did! Wholesome, fun stories about every day people and their foibles that hold your attention. The narrator is excellent too, and that adds even more to an already fun story.

Delightful and charming

Just as delightful as the first in the series! I loved getting to know the new characters in the quaint village the Abbots settle in. The narrator is perfect!

Charming and clever story

The Miss Buncle books really keep my interest. They are also peaceful and comforting while being intriguing as well. There is an old-fashioned charm in them since they take place almost 100 years ago.

I love Miss Buncle!

This is just a great fun story! THere is a little romance and just good clean english fun. Life in a small village. Ms. Stevenson really does a great job with character development. I found that once I start listening I don't want the story to end. I think Miss Buncle is someone that most of us can sort of identify with. This is a book that the children and I can comfortably listen to while working together on some kitchen project or riding along in the car. I did have to buy the next book in the series almost immediately to find out what happened next.

Delicious prose...

This delightful narration of a book that actually makes me laugh out loud comes warmly recommended. The narrator does a superb job at capturing male and female characters in a convincing manner. The plot is fun and the setting is quintessentially English. I wish I could spend my summer vacation in Wandlebury with the Abbotts coming to tea.

Great sequel to Miss Buncle's Book

Miss Buncle is a wonderful character and I loved the first book. Now she is married to Arthur, her publisher, and lives in the city. They would prefer to live in a smaller quieter place so they begin to look for the perfect house and location. Miss Buncle finds it and settles in with the people in the village. She makes friends easily and continues to be a wonderful loving person. This is a soothing character and book. There are no major or dramatic events but the story is so interesting and drew me in completely. It is a great sequel to a great book. Arthur is a good addition. He is as kind as Miss Buncle and they deserve each other.

Miss Bunkle/Mrs. Abbott series

I adore the entire Miss Bunkle series. There is an innocence in these books that I find refreshing. I get so tired of foul language, violence and sex, that seems to have in all books, t.v. shows and movies now. I love finding a series of books that I find interesting and fun, without all the yuk. D.E. Stevenson's books are a real joy and I plan on working my way through all of her books.
