Rachel´s Random Resources: Mrs. Bambi Knows by Chris Mason

 


In a small town in Oregon, almost everyone can´t wait to see what are the next gossips and relationships drama as adviced and solved by Mrs. Bambi, a local anonymous columnist. She seems to be everywhere, or at least where the best gossips are cooked. Everyone can´t wait to get to know her, but when it happens, they are more than surprised.

Mrs. Bambi is in fact a Mr., a curious widower with a young daughter who is about to fall in love again with a successful and attractive realtor. He cannot give up his writing, and in addition to that, there are some secrets he maybe is not yet ready to share. 

Full of humour and local flavour, Mrs. Bambi Knows is not only a perfect cosy read, but also raises questions about responsibility in the media, with insights into local everyday life and priorities, romance and love after love. The style makes the book even more enjoyable, bringing the characters closer to the reader, in a very friendly, intimate way. Once the story evolves, it makes you think about what exactly you would have done in their place and if you maybe are about to be too harsh in judging their decisions - especially those of ´Mrs. Bambi´.

If you are longing for a cosy humorous read for this weekend, this book may be a good start.

Rating: 3.5 stars
