Today I\u2019m reviewing the latest in the Little Duck Pond Cafe series, a series which I love and is a must-read for me. Many thanks to Rachel\u2019s Random Resources for having me on the tour and sending me a copy of the book to review. <\/p>\n

<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\nThe Book:<\/strong> After bonding with the lovely Jensen as they save a dog in trouble, Annalise \u2013 new to Sunnybrook \u2013 is gutted when they part without swapping numbers. She\u2019d had the weirdest feeling he could be The One but now she might never see Jensen again. When she loses her new job in a wedding boutique, her week goes from bad to worse \u2013 until Maddy and the caf\u00e9 crew come to her rescue with an exciting solution. The Pudding Club. Can Annalise rise to the challenge and \u2013 with the help of the Little Duck Pond Caf\u00e9 crew \u2013 start teaching others how to make her glorious puds? And could The Pudding Club be the key to finding Jensen again?<\/p>\n Purchase Link\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n https:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/dp\/B0CR8BR1MT<\/a><\/p>\n The Review:<\/strong> I don\u2019t know whether it\u2019s the time of year or something else but I felt this book was extra cosy. It\u2019s not all plain sailing for Annalise by any stretch of the imagination, but there is so much cosiness and warmth in this book that I felt like I was snuggled up in front of a fire (even though it\u2019s been quite warm this week!). I loved every aspect of this book from meeting and following Annalise find a new path in life, meeting the very cute Barley (the dog) and even encountering Jensen, who makes a very brief but very memorable appearance in the beginning. <\/p>\n It was lovely to be back in the Duck Pond Cafe again, as the last book didn\u2019t involve it much. I like that not all books involve it or the characters from it. It makes it even nicer when they therefore are in a story. However being back there made so much sense for this story and Annalise. The premise of the Pudding Club is a brilliant idea given her skills and situation and even the idea of sitting indoors on a darkening night watching someone make puddings and getting to taste them after, yum! Sign me up now! <\/p>\n Honestly, this book was just what I needed right now. Things are a bit hectic (nothing serious, just busy) and escaping to all this cosiness and warmth, and constant talk of puddings was just bliss. If you\u2019re after a properly cosy read then this is definitely worth checking out. Though it\u2019s part of a series it\u2019s not essential to read them in order. <\/p>\n The Author: <\/strong><\/p>\n Rosie Green\u2019s Little Duck Pond Cafe series of novellas is centred around life in a village cafe and most can be read as stand-alone stories. (\u2018The Sunshine Sisters\u2019 is a trilogy within the Little Duck Pond Caf\u00e9 series and it would benefit from being read in order: Aurora, Skye and Blossom.) Look out for \u2018Cosy Nights & Snowball Fights\u2019, and \u2018Maddy\u2019s Christmas Wedding\u2019, both out later this year in time for the festive season!<\/p>\n Follow Rosie on Twitter \u2013 https:\/\/twitter.com\/Rosie_Green88<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n
