I’ve just finished The Light Years by Elizabeth Jane Howard, 1990, a truly memorable family saga set just before the Second World War and I’m so glad it’s the first of a series of 5 books! Some more thoughts on it here #bookstodon #BookReview #Storygraph #Braille @bookstodon

@bookstodon Just finished Marking Time, the second in Elizabeth Jane Howard’s wonderful Cazalet Chronicle, set during WW2. again the characterisation is brilliant and the story so engaging. I’ve written a little more about it here #bookstodon #BookReview #Storygraph #Braille

@bookstodon I’ve just finished Confusion by Elizabeth Jane Howard, 1993, the third in the Cazalet Chronicles series and once again I was gripped by this family drama set during WW2. Some more thoughts on it here #bookstodon #BookReview #Storygraph #Braille

@bookstodon I’ve written a few thoughts on Casting Off, 1997, by Elizabeth Jane Howard, the fourth in the Cazalet Chronicles series, in which the family adjust to peacetime living in a changed England. I’m so glad there’s one book left as I’m not done with this family yet! #bookstodon #BookReview #Storygraph #Braille

I’m so sad to come to the end of the Cazalet Chronicles by Elizabeth Jane Howard, which I’ve spread out over the past year. Here’s my review of the final instalment, All Change, 2013. I highly recommend this series! #bookstodon #BookReview #Storygraph #Braille @bookstodon

@sarahmatthews @bookstodon I re-read them all at the end of last year, they’re such great stories. I found this last one quite sad though.
@thebaywindowgirl @bookstodon Yes it’s very sad and sombre in tone. I’ll be rereading them all in a few years’ time I’m sure, kind of comfort reading as you know the characters so well!
