Welcome to Litsy!

And this is where time does that really strange thing -
I read that line and thought 'oh you sassy youngin' it's not *that* old' 🙄 I remember going to the movies to see it like it was yesterday. . . . Then I checked the release date; 1988 😲 WTF?! It is really old 🙇🏻‍♀️😂😂🤦🏻‍♀️

The story was a nice, cozy, light-hearted, chuckle to yourself read. BUT the editing so damn bad that entire paragraphs didn't make sense. Not to mention the typos and bad grammar 😣 Even the blurb on the back was wrong--the story had nothing to do with a quarantine 🙄🙄

"The sun had been out earlier that day, and the family had all gone out to play."

Good. Enjoyed getting back into the lives of these characters as it's a continuation of The Beach Street Bakery series. Shows how grief affects people differently and how we deal with it. Full of hope and romance.

Just what I needed after a rough week, some time with some Beach Street Bakery friends from past books (Polly and Neil) whilst introducing us to Marisa a young lady who escapes to the Island as a way of coping with her Agoraphobia now that her beloved Grandfather has died. Her rowdy neighbour is starting a new life after the demise of his relationship in his home country. A story of love, loss, rebuilding, overcoming and reconnecting. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Colgan's latest returns to the charming Cornish seaside village...You can't put a timeline on grief. Marisa Rosso is stricken with fear and agoraphobia during quarantine trying to deal with her grief. She retreats to Mount Polbearne in hopes of solace and recovery. But quiet and seclusion eludes her when moving next door to a man who teaches piano and composes at night. Her Italian Nonna is the key to recovery and who knows maybe even ♥️

Oh my God, NOTHING makes me happier than being back in Mount Polbearne and catching up with my main man Neil the Puffin. But also what a beautiful story of healing after grief. 🧡 #contemporaryfiction
