My review -
This
is the delightful tale of a village and the history of a family. Venetia remembers her Grandpa Eddie telling
her stories about the shop he used to run in the little village of
Bumpkinton. She decides she’d like to go
back and run the shop if it’s for sale.
It is and she and her malleable husband Timothy buy it. The village is packed with wonderful characters
and most of them don’t like the idea of ‘townies’ coming in to their village.
I live
in a village too, and enjoyed this story which is light hearted and feel-good.
The author uses some great turns of phrase - I started highlighting them but
then realised there were too many and I’d be wasting good reading time! I understand there are more books planned in
this series. I shall be looking out for
them!
