I read this time it willing it to be less annoying than I remembered, in the same way that I sometimes try and force the ending to be different when I read A Farewell To Arms. The reason for this is that it has never been one of my favourites, so reading it again was like meeting up after many years for a tentative coffee with an old acquaintance you have never been very fond of!

I reread My Brother Michael for Mary Stewart Day, simply because it was one of the few of her books I hadn’t read for ages. For Mary Stewart Day, Annabel re-read My Brother Michael, despite this not being one of her favourite Mary Stewart novels, and I have persuaded her to share her review here. Some of you will have read author Annabel Frazer‘s previous guest reviews on this blog: she has shared her thoughts on Stormy Petrel, and, along with her 13-year-old daughter Olivia, The Ivy Tree.
