Issy Randall can bake. No, Issy can create stunning, mouthwateringly divine cakes. After a childhood spent in her beloved Grampa Joe's bakery, she has undoubtedly inherited his talent. She's much better at baking than she is at filing, so when she's laid off from her desk job, Issy decides to open her own little café. But she soon learns that her piece-of-cake plan will take all of her courage and confectionary talent to avert disaster.

Faced with the harsh reality that there are 25,000 more women than men in London, Katie’s dating prospects are at an all-time low. While she’s glad it’s not a man’s world anymore, it wouldn’t hurt if there were more eligible bachelors. More likely to get murdered than married, according to gleeful media reports, Katie resigns herself to the fact that there’s no sex in the city for her and decides to head for the hills - or the Scottish Highlands to be exact.

They may be twins, but Lizzie and Penny Berry are complete opposites. Penny is the life of the party - loud and outrageous, while quiet, thoughtful Lizzy is often left out of the crowd. The one trait they do share is a longing to do something spectacular with their lives, and as far as these two are concerned, there’s no better place to make their dreams reality than London. Presented with a once-in-a-lifetime house-sit at their grandmother’s home in a very desirable London neighborhood, it finally seems like Lizzie and Penny are a step closer to the exciting city life they covet.

Cozy read
I LOVE Jenny Colgan’s works. I discovered her this year and let me tell you, her books are just what 2020 ordered. They make you feel good and they’re funny to boot. I would read Meet Me at the Cupcake Cafe before reading this one, but it’s not 100% necessary. I did enjoy the narrator for the most part, though she does struggle with American accents sometimes. I won’t hold it against her too much. If you’re looking for a book to make you smile and feel happy, Jenny is for you!
