Too slow, overly descriptive, more about a second chance for a house
Graphic: Abandonment, Emotional abuse, and Toxic relationship

This book was what I needed during a month when the world felt very much too much.
If you like:
• small town life
• book clubs
• cool independent women
• Mr Knightley
• the seashore
• atmospheric weather
• village festivals
• coffee
• a little melodrama
• enemies to lovers
• bonfires on the beach
• holidays
• second chances
This was less of a Christmas book than I had expected, but I didn’t mind. It was also rather quiet and quirky, and slow paced, but very much a comfort.
