BLOG TOUR REVIEW
Review for 'Sunny Days At The Second Chances Sweet Shop' by Hannah Lynn.
Read and reviewed for Hannah Lynn, Boldwood Books, Book & Tonic, NetGalley and Rachel's Random Resources Tours.
Publication date 1st September 2023.
This is the first book I have read by this author. It is also the fifth book in the 'Holly Berry Sweet Shop' series but can be read as a standalone.
This novel consists of 54 chapters. The chapters are short in length so easy to read 'just one more chapter' before bed...OK, I know yeah right, but still just in case!
This book has fantastic descriptions that set you straight in the scenes. The cover, title and synopsis suit the storyline perfectly.
Where the heck have you been hiding all my life Hannah!!! Love, LOVE, LOVED this absolutely gorgeous page turner!! An absolute must read!!!
OMG!!! I absolutely LOVED this gorgeous page turner and I cannot WAIT for the next book in this series to come out along with getting stuck in to all the previous books!! They are just guaranteed to be stunning!! I will admit that I was expecting more about Holly's sweet shop considering that is the series name but this one is based on her going to France for a joint hen and stag night. However, there is mention of something that happens at the sweet shop so it is mentioned and to be fair if she never left her sweet shop it would be a very boring series!! It just so happens that I started this series on the book where she is away from it and all its made me do is want to go back and get stuck in to the previous books in this series. In this book Holly is off to France to join her friends on a joint hen and stag do and OMG Hannah's stunning evocative writing skills really does bring the villa, France and the characters to life. I absolutely adored being swept off on holiday and was so absorbed that on the rare moments I looked up it took me a while to realise I was in Wales at home and not in France on a boat or in a villa!!! The storyline is stunning and is ram packed with friendship, romance, old flings, parenthood, holidaying, fun and is an absolutely stunning escapism read!!! There is a mention of the sweet shop which I'm looking forward to previous books to go back to explore it but I just adored this book and loved everything about it!!! This is one of those books that are very easy to read and perfect for any reading situations whether you are laying on a beach or curled up in front of a fire. It is an absolutely ideal read for anyone who is looking for a gorgeous and relaxing read that will have you hooked from beginning to end. I absolutely LOVED the realism of this storyline which made it so easy to picture everything that was going on which had been helped by Hannah's fantastic evocative writing skills. I cannot wait to get hooked into more of Hannah's books so I hope she is busy writing her next one while I get stuck into the previous books in this stunning series!! This is definitely one of those books that will turn a frown upside down and make life seem a lot brighter. Grab your copy today and fall in love with The Holly Berry sweet shop series today!!!
Well done Hannah on an absolutely stunning and perfect addition to what promises to be a gorgeous series!!!
This may be the first book I have read by Hannah but I cannot wait to get hold of more books by this extremely talented author!!!
It is always worrying when starting a new series as you have no idea who the characters are. It is very important for me to bond with not only the lead protagonists but also any characters that may make repeat appearances during the series too.
Although this is the fifth book in the series I had absolutely no problems reading it without the others. Any details or events that have previously happened are mentioned in just the right amount of detail to let a new reader know what has happened and yet not too much to bore a previous reader.
The characters were all an eclectic mix and each one of them were realistic and strong. I was completely invested in them all. It also makes them more realistic, believable and made me feel even more for them than I normally would. I absolutely adored Holly who is just such a likeable, friendly and amazing woman. She is a single mum to 8 month Hope and is anxious about leaving her for the first time to go away for her friends hen break. As a mum myself I could completely relate to her about leaving your child for the first time and Hannah's evocative writing really brought her to life. Holly co-parents with her ex Ben who I actually really liked which surprised me. Normally the ex boyfriend is made out to be a complete pillock and horrible person but I love the fact that in this case their romance just fizzled out but they stayed friends and they work together really well. It's lovely how Ben keeps Holly updated on Hope and pushes her to go on the break she deserves. There were just so many amazing characters that I loved getting to know that I could write about them all day but I don't want to bore you so I'll start to wrap it up here. I do want to mention Evan who I absolutely loved, Jamie, Fin and Caroline who were lovely friends and Holly's Mum who I also really liked. Each of the characters are memorable and unique in their own ways and they are a group that I wont be forgetting any time soon! I cannot wait to meet them all again!!!
Pick up this book and get lost in this absolutely gorgeous page turner!
Congratulations Hannah on an absolutely stunning read that I just could not put down!!! I am absolutely mind blown that I have never read any of your absolutely gorgeous books yet!! I am looking forward to reading more of your previous and future books. I would absolutely love to see this book turned into a movie!!! Welcome to my favourite author list and here's to your next success 🥂
Make sure you read to the very end of the book to read the first chapter of Hannah's 'New Beginnings at Wildflower Lock', which promises to be just as gorgeous as this book. It is one I'm definitely looking forward to reading myself!!
Overall an unputdownable, gorgeous, STUNNING page turning book filled with holidays, romance, fun, laughter, friendship and so much more!! A perfectly relaxing and stunning unique read!!!!
288 pages.
This book is just £2.99, to purchase on kindle, free with kindle unlimited and £9.99 in paperback at time of review via Amazon which I think is an absolute bargain for this book!!!
Rated 5/5 (I LOVED it ) on Goodreads, Instagram, Amazon UK and Amazon US and on over 30 Facebook pages plus my blog on Facebook.
