Pumpkin Everything by Beth Labonte

4.0

Amy Fox is a horror novelist left with a broken heart after calling off her fall wedding, leaving her with a case of writer’s block and an aversion to all things pumpkin spice. When she receives news that her grandfather has driven through a Dunkin Donuts and broken his wrist, she knows she must return to her hometown of Autumnboro. She worries about seeing her primary reason for leaving her hometown, Kit Parker, her childhood best friend and first love. 

PUMPKIN EVERYTHING is just the cutest little love story. It’s set in Autumnboro, New Hampshire during the fall. The author does a great job weaving in the essence of autumn, making it feel immersive and truly the best season of the year. It reads like a Hallmark Christmas movie’s ode to fall. 

The town of Autumnboro is really cute with a great sense of community and support. I enjoyed each character that is encountered, all being lovable in some way. Kit and Amy’s reunion and the relationship that sparks anew between them is so sweet and heartfelt. The romance is clean and chaste apart from a few kisses on page. The ending was simply perfect making for a great cozy, fall-themed second chance romance!
