Sweetshop of Dreams by Jenny Colgan

3.0

Sweetshop of Dreams is a feel good, quick read by Jenny Colgan. This story revolves around Rosie Hopkins who works as a Nurse Auxiliary in London. She is then asked to go to the small town her family is from to help her Great-Aunt Lilian get back on her feet. This involves getting her back to health, cleaning up the family sweetshop in order to sell it, and get Lilian into a home. Like all Colgan novels where an outsider comes to a small UK town Rosie is charmed by the town and makes some friends as well as some enemies.

This is one of those palette cleanser novels where it is nothing too intense, is fast paced, and give you something enjoyable to read just when you need a book like that. If you need an idyllic town story with a female lead who finds herself pick this one up.
