A review by charleyg
The Beachside Flower Stall by Karen Clarke
5.0
Carrie fancies her friend Tom and decides to make it known to him at his 21st birthday. Taking along her friend Megan to the party, Megan swoops in and steals her man. After running away Carrie returns to Shipley 10 years later to help her aunt on her flower stall... pitch for the job of Tom and Megan's wedding!
Fantastic book, although it's the second in the series can definitely be read as a standalone though I did enjoy coming back to the characters we had already met from the sweet shop.
Megan was my favorite character, I just loved to hate her. At time I wanted to stand up to her for Carrie. I found Carrie a little meek for my tastes as a main character but the bravery she showed in helping her aunt was really heart warming.
The innuendo conversations she had with the landlord of the flat that her aunt lives in was really funny and topping it off the way she did was hilarious but I'll say no more for the risk of spoilers.
Absolutely recommend the whole series of books by Karen and hope there are more to come as I'm already missing Doris!
