Evvie Drake Starts Over by Linda Holmes
We like coming across debut novels that become best sellers because like newly opened restaurants, we like supporting promising new authors hoping that they would eventually write more books we can fall in love with.
You can tell a lot by the title of the book – Evvie Drake Starts Over. After all, it’s the reason why we picked up the book. We wanted a character to cheer for and show us how to start over even if it’s only fiction. Well, we got that and more.
If you want a delightful light read that’s not a YA novel then this one’s for you. The characters are adult and they deal with things more realistically. There’s no “unnecessary” drama. If you like charming, quaint settings then this one has it too.
