A Year of New Adventures by Maddie Please
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Billie Summers is a frustrated author (or not). She's been trying to write an historical romance for years without success. In the interim she's held a series of short-term minimum skills jobs. At present she is working part-time in her uncle's book shop, making cakes to order and hosting writers retreats.
Billie and her BFF host a writer's retreat for a group of writers. Unfortunately one of them is a best-selling author who thinks the world owes him a living and acts like a prima donna. With his commandeering the room on the ground floor, demanding food at specified times, sneering at the food on offer and inhaling coffee all the time Oliver Frost is the worst imaginable guest and a PITA.
I really enjoyed this, it was funny, clever and like wallowing in a bath of high grade chocolate.
I received a free copy of this book from the publisher via NetGalley in return for an honest review.
