This funny and original book is perfect summer reading! With well-defined characters and a perfect balance of reality with just a bit of unreality, you'll want to keep coming back for more!

I love when a book I have no real expectations for manages to impress me! The Good Luck Girls of Shipwreck Lane is a feel good story that has a little bit of everything. Three lost souls, all in different stages of their lives, are thrown together under very unusual circumstances after winning a dream home, sort of. There‘s romance, food, and even some humor. This story left me wanting a good meal, a good cry, and to read more by this author!

It's sweet and can be considered "clean" drags a bit in the beginning, it does have an amazing secondary character " Aunt Midge" her meddling really helps the book advance, I would recommend it for a commute or rainy day.

Ughhhhhh it's like every "chick lit" trope was crammed into one book. Brassy grandma figure? Check. Abused young girl who grew up with a shitty gone life? Check. Shy woman who needs to come out of her shell? Check. It was just so predictable.
