Reading a good book while eating cupcakes. No better combination and that’s what’s to be found in Meet Me At the Cupcake Café. Ms. Colgan has managed to combine an interesting, witty plot with recipes for various sweet treats scattered throughout its pages.

I found myself cheering for everyone in this book. They’re skillfully drawn and come across as real people with issues we can all relate too, like losing a job, aging parents and grandparents etc. The lead character, Issy, is fun to follow as she deals with what to do with the rest of her life. There’s also Pearl who I thought was a memorable character and who often had the funniest dialogue.

Despite its 400 plus pages, the story seemed to clip by and you find yourself wanting to read just a little more at each sitting. I’ll definitely be looking out for more of this author’s books. If you enjoy chick-lit with a British setting, plus tempting cake recipes, this might be one for you to try.
