Back when the coronavirus was considered a global emergency and lockdown was in order, I found myself having to change my library items from physical pick-ups to digital on Kindle. One of them was Little Beach Street Bakery by Jenny Colgan.
It’s a contemporary about a woman, as the title suggests, opening a new bakery in a town she’s moved into. Along the way, she finds herself taking care of an injured bird and getting close to a beekeeper. I found it being the light read I definitely needed at the time.
If you had one, what was it? I noticed that House in the Cerulean Sea by T.J. Klune was often cited as one on BookTube.
Jackson’s read on people, her powers of observation, are spooky good.
I keep trying to tell people who have only read ‘The Lottery’ in school to go read other stories of hers. She was an amazing writer.
I think she’d also have been the one to stand next to at any party. She saw everything.
