Such a delightful read ! I have loved this novel. The characters are brilliantly defined, their community is so warm and pulls you to The Castle (without the h) pub. I felt I was there with them all and it felt good!
Lizzie Page masterfully writes heartwarming novels. The storyline pulls at your heart, the plot is lively and entertaining, and the characters are more than likeable. Wit also colours this novel (as well as in her other novels!). What I also enjoyed in this novel, is that I learned quite a bit about public house regulations during WWII which I was not aware of. This was interesting!
I highly recommend this novel that brings (warming and cosy) light into a dark period of time.
I received a digital copy of this novel from NetGalley and I have voluntarily written an honest review.
