Reading of the month

"The irresistible blueberry bakeshop & café"

by Mary Simses

“I guess that's the lesson in all of this-not to be eighty years old, looking back on your life, wondering if you made the right choice or how your life might have been different if you'd done one thing and not another.” 

"A high-powered Manhattan attorney finds love, purpose, and the promise of a simpler life in her grandmother's hometown.
 

Ellen Branford is going to fulfill her grandmother's dying wish--to find the hometown boy she once loved, and give him her last letter. Ellen leaves Manhattan and her Kennedy-esque fiance for Beacon, Maine. What should be a one-day trip is quickly complicated when she almost drowns in the chilly bay and is saved by a local carpenter. The rescue turns Ellen into something of a local celebrity, which may or may not help her unravel the past her grandmother labored to keep hidden. As she learns about her grandmother and herself, it becomes clear that a 24-hour visit to Beacon may never be enough."

When I bought this book, I was looking for a summer read. In advance, I looked at the books in my shelves, in hope to find a book I'd like to read again, and didn't share with you, yet. But...there was none. 

So I went to the bookshop and found this one. I really like the cover and the story sounds interesting as well. In february, I read a book which has blown me away. I have great hopes that it will be the same with this one. So come on, long summer days and nights. I am prepared!

Happy reading!
