5.0 out of 5 stars Better than expected! 1 July 2006
By Sue at home VINE™ VOICE
Format:Paperback
This charming 'Aga-saga' was the first Ann Purser I have read and was much more enjoyable than I expected.

Village life oozes from the every page - there are white christmases and fluffy kittens, rivers and farms. The characters are very believable from the 'village gossip' to the 'lady of the manor'. I never felt this book was a cliche or stereotypical as the characters are so real, each with their own problems and you can feel sympathetic to them all - even the more spiteful ones at times!

I read this as a break from crime and physcological thrillers. The prose flows easily and even though there are quite a lot of characters they are all so clearly pictured I felt like I new them personally. Good news too - if you like this there are more based on the same village and residents! Soap fiction!

I recommend Pastures New to anyone looking for an easy, enjoyable read. I will look forward to reading the next in the series.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic Fiction 8 Aug 2012
By Michelle - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I first read 'Thy Neighbours Wife' by Ann Purser. I didn't know at the time it was a series of books. So by starting at the beginning with 'Pastures New' I was able to understand the characters even better - fell in love with them even more. I think Ann Pursers novels are the best I've read so far and this one was no exception. Can't wait for the next one called 'Spinster Of The Parish', because it's going to begin where 'Pastures New' left off.
