Now that her morbidly obese sister, Agnes, is comfortably dieting at the Greenbrier Nursing Home, Griselda Sparrow learns to fly - literally - after a pilot makes an emergency landing and creates quite a ruckus in the otherwise sleepy town of Bright's Pond. But Griselda's newfound freedom - and her flight time with the handsome pilot, Cliff - is hampered by other happenings in town. Like the gold digger who is prancing around town.

Joyce Magnin is adept at creating a town quirky enough to keep you laughing, but with enough real fears and hopes to make the characters relatable, or at least some of them. Have I mentioned the peculiar people? Griselda is the voice of the novel and also the voice of reason. Struggling to find her new identity, Griselda is willing to explore and grow, rather than to stay same.
If you liked Jan Karon’s Mitford, but want a little more adventure and spirit, and yes, oddity, in your reading, then choose Griselda Takes Flight. This book is #3 in the series, but could be read as a standalone. But why? Look for book 1, The Prayers of Agnes Sparrow and book 2, Charlotte Figg Takes over Paradise.
