Laburnum Terrace - a closed street with its stereotypical set of characters. Through a year we get to know the people for better or for worse. We see what they build their lives upon, knowing all along that not everybody will survive the end of the book.

I reread this book on a very regular basis as a teen, but somehow haven't read it in ages, so I figured it was about time. Fortunately it completely lived up to my expectations and I enjoyed diving back into it again after so long.

It is not a book I'd recommend to a non-christian, as it does get somewhat preachy at times. Not enough to bug me, but enough that certain scenes might seem over-the-top.
