I really liked this! A fast, fun, light book with a fantastic cast of characters and animals.
This book superseded my expectations. I got it for $6 at a book sale and what a find it turned out to be. This had a similar charm to Confessions of a Shopholic in some of the wacky characters and the decisions they made. It was just a fun read. There was a really low romance element which made it all the more enjoyable!
I would be keen to read more about the exploits of these characters on the farm!

I'd give this another half star if I could. It started out slowly, but picked up and I cared about the characters at the end.

This book was a wonderful modern comedy of manners with a charming cast of characters. Never delving to deeply but with a surprisingly sharp edge, I was really surprised by this one. And personally, I think Seth made the whole thing worth it.

Dit boek liet me zoveel lachen. Ik vond het hartverwarmend hoe de personages bij elkaar komen en langzaam groeien. Elk personage heeft een eigen verhaal en een uitgewerkt karakter. De situaties waarin ze terechtkomen zijn hilarisch en soms pijnlijk. Interessant om te zien hoe deze door alle personages anders worden ervaren.
Ik kwam soms lastig door de problematische doch realistische manier heen waarop de personages door elkaar worden beschreven. Blubberbuik

Very cute book. I loved the characters and laughed out loud several times. The reason I only gave it a three was that the storyline kind of wandered off track at times. I would recommend though

Home to Woefield was such a fun read! This book held great characters and a lot of humor. I particularly adored Sarah. She was so witty, yet sweet. I flew through this story and thoroughly enjoyed my experience with each character.

The author mentions being inspired by Cold Comfort Farm and Nick Hornby, which I can totally see. It has the same optimism and humour as Cold Comfort, updated for a post modern era. It's cute without being cloying and does the country/city juxtaposition quite well.
