Book excerpt: In the first full-length follow-up to Miss Budge in Love, Simpkins explores some of the challenges Miss Mildred Budge faces as she attempts to settle into retirement in the garden district of Montgomery, Alabama, Cloverdale. Readers will be thrilled to find that this novel contains all of the humor and the Southern flavor of her earlier short story collection but with added intrigue and story depth that only novel-length work can provide. Simpkins presents comfortable stories and relatable characters that are deceptively deep and complex, but while you may stop to consider some of the issues of faith and aging explored here, the people and situations are just as likely to make you laugh out loud. This first novel in the projected series is highly recommended for the light-of-heart and deep-of-faith. Mildred Budge In Cloverdale is the first book in this series and was originally published as Cloverdale.
