Book Received from Author - Thank you Sophie
Estelle is a thirty something single
mother who runs the local café crumb. In desperate need of a few extra pennies
to keep the café going she decides to try a new venture to help increase income
– a book club. (What a fab idea!) A mix bag of 4 people turn up for the meeting
….Sue, a retired sixty something struggling with the gap left from finishing
work, Gracie, a strong feminine character with many open opinions, Rachel, a
bubbly secondary school teacher in need of a hobby and Reggie a shy student who
attends the meeting for research purposes. The current book phenomena is erotic
novel ‘Ten Sweet Lessons’ so when the group take a liking to the book erotica
from all decades soon becomes the club craze and changes their lives in more
ways than they expected.
I was hooked on this book right from the
start. The characters were all very different and it was captivating reading
how their lives changed throughout the book. I really liked Estelle’s character,
she was so likeable and what I call ‘normal’ it was a pleasure to follow her
story. I found it really hard to put down, I just wanted to see what they were
going to do/what was going to happen to them next! Having seen the title you
may be hesitant that the book itself is full of sex and erotica and another ‘Fifty
shades’ but it really isn’t – it much more focused on the characters and their
lives with a bit of sauciness thrown in along the way ;-)
Definitely a Novel Café Cupcake…10/10….A
perfect chick lit read, easy, fun, sexy, captivating, emotional and romantic
all in one book. I would thoroughly recommend and can’t wait to see what Sophie
has in store.
