Turn Again Home by Ruby Ferguson ☺️🧡💚

10🌟! Beautiful, beautiful book! It's the BEST book I've read so far this year. 😍❤️

I literally just finished reading the last page of this lovely, touching, bittersweet and glorious novel. I wanted to write down my thoughts and feelings before they faded away—though, in this case, I doubt they will. 

The description on the flyleaf of my vintage edition: 

“𝘈 𝘴𝘵𝘰𝘳𝘺 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘠𝘰𝘳𝘬𝘴𝘩𝘪𝘳𝘦 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘵𝘳𝘺 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘠𝘰𝘳𝘬𝘴𝘩𝘪𝘳𝘦 𝘱𝘦𝘰𝘱𝘭𝘦.

I absolutely LOVED this book. I can't say it enough. Even though this Ruby Ferguson title didn't end quite the way I wanted it to, it was still a very satisfying ending. I'm still reeling, though! The last couple of chapters were a whirlwind of activity and I could not put the book down until I was done.

WHY I ADORED THIS NOVEL:

💚 Writing like a clear and sparkling crystal bell
🧡 Family reminisces expressed in the most touching way 
💚 Letting go of appearances and conceit
🧡 The small town of Hockworth and its people
💚 Clothing/woolen mill descriptions
🧡 Beautiful and wild nature of the Yorkshire country
💚 Separate chapters focusing on each of the family members and their thoughts about the past
🧡 The Bridmoor Family (𝘏𝘢𝘪𝘨𝘩, 𝘞𝘳𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵, 𝘝𝘪𝘥𝘢, 𝘋𝘢𝘱𝘩𝘯𝘦 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘏𝘰𝘱𝘦)
💚 The feelings, the descriptions, the inner thoughts!!

FAVORITE QUOTES & PASSAGES:

'All experience is an arch where through gleams that unraveled world.'

"She was already bustling about, utterly happy, in her element, spreading a white cloth on the table and laying out a knife and a fork, with a flower-patterned plate of fine china, a cup and saucer. Then she cut two rounds of white bread and toasted them to a delicate brown on the fire, buttering them generously and popping them into the oven to keep hot."

'Your mother used to come along to the kitchen about the end of November, and we would make out the list for the grocer. Not only the currants and raisins and candied peel, but all the things you never hear about now: the crystallized rose-petals and violets, the angelica and icing sugar and Chinese ginger and glace cherries and fruits, and the sherry and the brandy for the puddings, and the ground almonds and crackers, and the sugar biscuits and the cheese assorted, and the Garibaldis—those were your father's favorites—and the Bourbons. I never could keep you children away from the Bourbons.' 

"And then trimming the Christmas-tree. The lovely things you used to get for a penny! Silver angels, and blown glass mandolines with tinsel strings, and crystal birds with long blue feather tails. And for a few pennies we used to buy pressed concertina things made of coloured paper, and, when you pulled, it came out about a mile long and hung with enormous paper bells. And Father used to take us to town before Christmas just to see the shops full of wonderful things, all colour and gaity and charm." 

"How many of Daphne's memories were of sewing! Sewing in the garden on summer afternoons with Mother and Vida, folds of white silk billowing to the green grass, taking a pride in choosing the finest needle, so that Mother would cry, 'How can you see to thread that?—What it is to be young!' And the chink of tea-cups mingling with the hum of the lawn mower in the sultry afternoon.." 

"He wandered over to his bookcases to choose a book, something soothing, but at the same time gripping. This was an hour he loved, late and quiet, the room lamp-lit, the fire steadied to a rich glow He ran his fingers along the shelves, touching a cover here and there, remembering happy hours spent with this and that volume. He liked to keep his favorite books, and read them again and again, having provided that every time one re-read a book there is something to be discovered." 

"They were all picturing the dining-room as it had been, handsome with its broad table covered with a green velvet cloth when not in use, and its sideboard display of silver articles and old-fashioned spirit heater. The aroma of good food had hung every around those walls, the rich scent of golden Yorkshire pudding and beef gravy, of roast meas and buttered vegetables, of apple pies stuck with cloves and Wensleydale cheeses and warm peaches and grapes, and creamy tea and strong coffee, and plum cake and Christmas puddings."

"Mother would run out of the drawing-room to press the child's cold cheeks between her warm, soft hands. 'Bed for you, my duck.' Then Patty would be running upstairs with paper and sticks and coal, and Carrie with hot-water bottles wrapped in red flannel for Hope's bed, and Mother would take her up and undress her before the cheerful blaze and pop her into the soft inviting bed. Chest rubbed with nice-smelling lotion, blue dressing-gown on, Hope would sit up like a queen for her supper, a tray with the rose-embroidered cloth and the pink fluted china, poached egg, hot buttered toast, pears and cream, hot custard, and Pink Milk, which was ordinary milk with just a few drops of raspberry essence to make it pretty." 

Sadly, Turn Again Home is very hard to find. At the time of my review, there is one copy available on Abebooks.com. I was so incredibly lucky that my husband bought this HC/DJ edition for my 52nd birthday this year (it was in a bookstore in Australia!! 😱). But, if you are lucky enough to see a copy somewhere, please buy it. It will be worth every penny!! 

I'm hoping SO MUCH that Dean Street Press will be able to republish some of Ruby Ferguson's out-of-print books (like they did with Apricot Sky!) This one is definitely a must and I'm crossing my fingers that, one day, everyone who loves Ruby Ferguson's books will be able to read this heartfelt story 😍❤️

Once again, Ruby Ferguson did not let me down. I've read 6 of her books so far and they've all been 5 stars. 🤩🌟

Highest of recommendations possible!!

Have the most awesome weekend, book friends! Much love and many hugs! 💕🌸🤗🌸💕

Favorite 24+ Books of 2024! 🤩🌟🎉📖

Happy January, Friends!!! 

I wish I could give you all the biggest New Year's hug 🤗🤗 Grab a cup of tea (or fav beverage) and a little treat (wish I could share my homemade cranberry orange scone with you!) and let's get caught up with favorite books!

I had another awesome reading year with 241 books under my book belt - woo-hoo! 🥳 Here are the books that brought me the MOST JOY last year 🥰   

Find all of my Goodreads reviews HERE! 

REPUBLISHED BOOKS

🌟You know how much I love out-of-print books that are brought back to life by amazing new publishers. These Dean Street Press Furrowed Middlebrow, British Library Women Writers and Manderley Press books stole my heart this year! Every single Ruby Ferguson book I read was a 5 star rating and I can't wait to read the last two Molly Clavering books in my collection.

NON-FICTION BOOKS 

 🌟 I love reading memoirs, almanacs, nature journals and finding favorite quotes. These books were absolutely wonderful and lovely to read before bed. Month-by-month books are my favorites—The Shape of a Year by Jean Hersey is now a new all-time favorite! (I'm currently reading her first book, A Sense of Seasons, each month during 2025.) The Elizabeth Goudge memoir touched my heart so much and, after reading this book, my admiration for her has grown even more! (Note: The Elizabeth Goudge Book Club, hosted by Julie, will be reading The Joy of the Snow this June 💚)

🌟 Unearthing the Secret Garden by Marta McDowell was also amazing!! I had no idea that the life of Frances Hodgson Burnett was so fascinating! She is definitely a person (along with Agatha Christie, Gladys Taber and Elizabeth Goudge) that I wish I could go back in time to meet. I'd also love to add a few more Susan Branch books to my collection this year! (I think I'm only missing a few...)

VINTAGE BOOKS
🌟 I enjoyed SO many Kathleen Norris (loved buddy reading this author's books with Andrea @sorrythankyou79 😍) and Marcia Willett books (thanks to Caro @carosbookcase 😁) this year. Kathleen Norris writes vintage romances (primarily set in California) that are full of cozy and descriptive details, twists, turns and (usually) thrilling endings. Marcia Willett is a new favorite of mine with her compelling family dramas. You can really get lost in her stories! Also, it's no surprise that another Ruby Ferguson and DE Stevenson title are also featured here! (Blow the Wind Southerly is alternate title for Charlotte Fairlie.) Dear Mad'm was definitely a surprise—rustic, humorous and very charming!

VINTAGE CHILDREN’S BOOKS
🌟 More brilliant books by Ruby Ferguson and Frances Hodgson Burnett! I plan on reading at least a few more children's books by BOTH authors this year. Yay! Also, The Maida and Mary Jane series are adorable, refreshing and so fun to read. Thanks to Caro (again!) for recommending Castaway Christmas and for our lovely buddy read in December 🥰🎄

 

BONUS A: CONTEMPORARY CHILDREN’S BOOKS
📘 I loved reading the entire Willam Horwood's "Tales of the Willows" series with @carosbookscase 🥰  I'm so excited that we'll be doing a re-read this year - yes!! I was so happy to find more vintage childrens/middle grade lighthouse books that have become favorites. I'd love to read more. Do you have any suggestions for me? (I might look into getting a lighthouse shaped bookcase for my lighthouse books!)

The two Bushel & Peck books are so beautiful (both in construction and story) and they now have a permanent place on my favorites book shelf! Pansy Goes to Paris was absolutely adorable (especially after my trip to Paris this year with Beth and Liz!) I'd love to read Clarence Goes to The Chelsea Flower Show next 😄

BONUS B: CONTEMPORARY BOOKS
🌼 These six books were fabulous!!! Even though I accidentally shared a photo of the wrong Laura Wood book (I meant to share a photo of A Season for Scandal), this first book was awesome, too! I'm impatiently waiting for A Game of Scandal (due out mid Feb 2025!) Dying to read more books by Valerie Perrin (especially Forgotten on Sunday), Ginny Moyer, Barbara Matteson and Lynda Marron 🤩 If you haven't read any books by these talented authors, it's time!! You'll love them!
