The Beach Reads Book Club by Kathryn Freeman

5.0

If you are looking for an enjoyable, funny, sweet, romantic summertime Beach Read, look no further than Kathryn Freeman’s latest - The Beach Reads Book Club.

Lottie gets booted from her quite serious book club - so, she does what any lover of HEAs would do - she creates who own Beach Reads book club, complete with people who wouldn’t have come together otherwise. This group of quirky individuals quickly become friends who support each other through lifes ups and downs. The ensemble of characters are great together and make for some very funny laugh out loud movements.

But at the heart of the story - we also find Matthew Steele, the owner of the book store where Lottie holds her book club meetings. Matthew is a flawed man, who is trying to grow, and become a better brother and son. Lottie and Matthew’s connection seems impossible as they are so opposite - but we find they complete each other and make each other better in the process. Their story is really well developed and lovely.

Thank you to NetGalley and One More Chapter for the ARC in exchange for my honest review. I can’t wait for more people to fall in love with Matthew (I mean who wouldn’t) and Lottie’s story!
