The Little Guest House of New Beginnings is a story filled to the brim with heart and soul that left me grinning from ear to ear. I devoured the entire book in one sitting as the story invited me in with it's warmth and happiness and I found that I just couldn't put it down. The writing style is easy going and moves with effortless ease along the narrative to produce a heartwarming and uplifting piece that I thoroughly enjoyed.
The characters that reside on Sunflower Island are a joy to behold and they welcomed me in like an old friend. Our heroine, Madison, is an eternal optimist but my heart went out to her on several occasions with her crippling self conscious thought process of always feeling in the way. These thoughts cause her to run from difficult situations and her journey throughout the book forces her to address these problems. She is a loveable character that had me reaching for my cheerleading pom-poms. Connor is another complex character that has internal struggles to face in order to gain control and a clear perspective on his life.....together they make a right pair! But I championed them on from the start and was hoping for that sort after happy ever after.
This was an all round perfect pick me up of a read that I couldn't put down. I'm very much looking forward to seeing what Donna Ashcroft brings to the table next.
