Thoughts

This was a free book given away by Apple, and I read through it pretty quickly. It tells the tale of a young headteacher who battles her own demons to try and stop her school from being closed down, whilst at the same time falling in love with her next door neighbour. Of course that means lots of misunderstandings, twist and turns along the way, romantic dates and blazing rows, and all that good stuff.

The book is well written, a bit corny in places, but with good ideas and a nice cast of characters that are well-rounded and with mostly good intentions. There are follow up books in the series that I might look into but probably prioritise others first.

Rating: 3 / 5
