Anyone read any Jack Sheffield?I got hold of 'Teacher, teacher!' from the library and I absolutely adored it. I'm not sure if it is because I work in a school, or that I was after something that was fairly easy reading and it fitted the bill, but honestly, I loved it so much I have had to order the next books!

I had not heard of him before either Gwen - did the same as you and had a quick scoot over to Amazon to check him out. Restrained myself and did not add to basket ... but might put one of the titles on my bookmooch wishlist.

They are set in a fictional village called Ragley on the Forest, which is supposedly near York. I think that on his website it tells you the exact Village High Street that he based it on.
They are really cosy books, in a way I wish I had waited to read them in winter as they are 'hot chocolate and biscuits' type reads. Oh well, book 4 is out on 1st January and is on preorder, so that can be fulfilled!!!!
(Also, I emailed him to say I enjoyed the book and found it inspiring, and had a lovely reply-he seems a very nice man!)

The second one, which I am reading at the moment, seems quiet 'samey'-I am wishing I had left a longer gap between reading them to be honest. But then I often find that with a series, when an author spends the first few chapters reintroducing the characters.
