Kendra's Comments: A Common Life : The Wedding Story is book 6 of Jan Karon's Mitford Years Series. While references are made to earlier books, enough character description is given to enjoy this book without reading the previous books in the series. This soft and sweet story dealing with fear of love, small town antedotes and happy endings is a nice gentle read.
