Yes, it's time to be done with this author/consortium of authors. There is a formula. Old relative + guy whose wife has died + jilted woman + ex who borders on stalker/violent behavior that no one takes too seriously + lots of baking + gratuitous use of exclamation points!!! The first two I read were enjoyable, light reads. The subsequent two were awful.Plus, this book "made" me eat chocolate by mentioning it so damn often. What a great read! I love Trisha's writing, plot and characters. I've read all her novels fom Sowing Secrets to this one. What I like above all is that all her stories are set in the same area , Lancashire, and that all characters are 'related' in a way. You get to know them all from one novel to the other.It's deliciously brilliant and I also adore the recipes at the end... I've already tried some, yummie...I sincerely can't wait for the next one!
Brilliant as usual. I really want to live in Sticklepond even though I know it's fictional.
