Lumby's Bounty

Like all the previous stories, I was drawn into this community and couldn't wait for what would happen next. Pete

It has been a pleasure to read the three books in this series. The writing gets better and better and the story lines get better and better. I particularly enjoy reading as I am a writer/editor myself and one becomes conscious of readability, etc. Truly enjoyable in every way!

I have fallen in love with all the folks in Lumby. You will too! Once you read the first Lumby book, you will not stop until you have read all three. I am anxious for more!

Lumby's Bounty is the 3rd installment from Gail Fraser in the Lumby series. Book #3 does not disappoint. This time the town of Lumby is thrown into a whirlwind when they unexpectedly have to host a Hot Air Balloon Festival. The towns residents rise to the occassion with lots of laughs, new relationships, changing relationships and new directions in life. If you like cozy, small town reads, the town of Lumby is the perfect place to visit.

I was once again swept away to Lumby, a delightfully quirky town whose residents have deep morals, iron clad values and unstiring faith. The town is reluctantly drawn into hosting a hot air ballon festival; the preparations are hilarious and the outcome, endearing and unforgetable. Meanwhile the monks of Saint Cross are overrun by "seekers" who seem more intersted in free handouts than in spiritual growth. A delightful read that will have you smiling until the very last page, and then some. Highly recommended to anyone who enjoys Jan Karon, Nicholas Sparks, Macomber and Medlicott and all the other writers who don't have to use blantant sex and violence to weave a great story.
