A review by emstrow
A Season for Second Chances by Jenny Bayliss
5.0
So many likable characters with vastly different personalities. A charming seaside village in winter. Lovely descriptions of the scenery. I laughed out loud a couple of times and found myself rooting for everybody!
It starts in the late summer and ends on Christmas Day, so it’s not exactly a Christmas book like I thought it was, but I’ll happily reread it this fall.
Also listened to snippets of the audio book when I couldn’t sit down to read, and the accents (English and Scottish) enhanced my love for the story.
There is a scene where the book club gals give the newly single Annie a special gift for relieving some “tension.” So if that kind of conversation makes you uncomfortable, skim the book club portion when that comes up…but honestly, it was a hilarious scene. I cracked up.
