Meet Me at the Cupcake Café by Jenny Colgan was a book I kept debating about getting. When my blogging friend over at Cornish Cream recommended I read it, it went right into my Kindle in the form of the Audible version. Thank you so much Barbara for recommending I do get it as I enjoyed it so much that I will be listening to the following book very soon too.
Issy bakes! When she is made redundant from her job, she decides to just go for it and create a cupcake café. She has the perfect little shop in mind to house this new adventure. Her first hurdle is to get a rental agreement for the shop while another woman is also trying for it. She wins out and sets up an adorable little place. Her second hurdle is to get people through the door. In the course of time, she starts getting to know more and more people in the neighborhood. These are characters you will enjoy meeting as they come through her door. It almost makes you feel like you are sitting at a corner table enjoying people watching as you sip on a latte and nibble on one of the cupcakes.
This is a fun book that is full of endearing people. It is a book that makes you cheer in the end. It was a perfect companion to quilting or crocheting while I listened.
Happy reading!

I'm so glad you liked it, Heidi! She has written several more but some are not as appealing.
I have another writer for you now...Nicky Pellegrino. Do read her books about Italy and food. I loved 'The Italian Wedding'. I jut enjoy novels that also include gorgeous recipes!
This one has just been donated to our Book Borrowers group, i think one of the ladies took it home last week to read.
Sounds like a cute book. Glad you liked it. On to the next one now.
Love you, Mom
