These books always have a bakery or a bookshop and a single, white, moderate woman whose money is inexplicable (at least her dim-witted privilege is called out in this book, and she’s relatively likable. This is a fun yarn with the addition of a corgi! The dog is why I downloaded. The actress, however, really..

I really wanted to like this book as I have a love of Hawaii and I have chickens, that being said this was very soft moric. One thing that I still can’t get past is the name Saffron as the main character and she wrote it in the third person but we never saw anybody..

Review from Live and Let Growl →
I could have taken the change in reader (even if it was an adjustment) if this reader didn’t sound so robotic. I even tried speeding it up a tiny bit to see if that helped; it didn’t. I love these books, they got me through a difficult postpartum period. I don’t think I can continue..
The story was pretty good, modern elements plugged into tried and true mm formula. Mostly likable characters. But that baby voice. Idk if I can get through more installments if all read by this narrator. Everyone is a baby, except for Lois, an older character who sounds like the Wicked Witch from Oz. One other..
