Hetty’s Farmhouse Bakery by Cathy Bramley
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Hetty lives with her husband Dan, and daughter Poppy on a sheep farm in Cumbria. Life is ideal, but money is tight, and every penny must be accounted for, but the three of them live a happy life surrounded by friends and family. However, Hetty has occasional pangs that life might have passed her by, so when her sister-in-law secretly enters one of Hetty’s pies into a local food competition, life changes for entire Greengrass family.
I fell into this book and absolutely adored it. Being a complete townie, I have always fancied the idea of living in the country, and the beauty of this book is that I was able to live that dream without having to step outside of my house!
I didn’t warm to Dan, Hetty’s husband, I thought he was incredibly selfish, but I must admit that I thawed towards him at the end. Hetty was my absolute heroine, I adored her, and could see myself sitting around the farmhouse table chatting to her, drinking a cup of coffee whilst she baked her delicious pies!
Although I raced through the book, because the story was so warm and inviting, I didn’t want it to end.
If you’ve never read a Cathy Bramley book before, then go out and beg, borrow or buy one now, you won’t be disappointed.
