I found this one at Dollar Tree for $1.25! Couldn‘t believe my luck!

I have fun randomly choosing a Jenny Colgan book as I read down her catalog. I love the settings and don‘t mind when some reads garner a so-so rating. But this one (2002), was mean-spirited from the fist page to the last. Aside from the two brothers none of these characters were what anyone would want in a friend. It may have been inspired by Bridgette Jones‘ Diary (1999), but the delivery didn‘t work at all for me. Pretty cover though!
Definitely not a favorite, halfway through I nearly #DNF. It was juvenile and had some offensive descriptions (was 1990 really 30 years ago!). I kept going because this was her 1st book and I hoped it would get better and it did. Charming ending made up for the problems along the way, though I‘m not sure I‘d recommend this one. #Booked2021 #bakedgoodsonthecover #BookspinBingo @TheAromaofBooks @Cinfhen @BarbaraTheBibliophage @4thhouseontheleft
Best work from home perk? Lunchtime reading in the sunshine! #currentread
Sweet and light. Just what I needed! Jenny Colgan is always great when I need an uplift!
