A review by lillian_francis
The Accidental Baker by Clare London

5.0

Such a sweet collection of short stories all connected by the same parade of shops and some homemade wayward Easter chocolates. These were four couples all meeting and/or connecting for the first time on the same day. The stories are all short; Donnie, who started it all by making the eggs, seems to get the short straw in the story department but he ends the collection as well as starting it which rounds the whole thing off nice. Each situation and pairing is distinctive and different.

Well written, with Clare London’s trademark wit, and a nice British flair.

I’d love to read more about these characters.

An enjoyable and engaging read. If you're looking for something relatively short, angst-free, and sweet to read this weekend, I'd recommend this.
