Add a CommentIn the tradition of Maeve Binchy, Ms. Meaney spins a tale of Irish village life. Our principal focus is Hannah Robinson, who has just opened a cupcake shop AND been dumped by her boyfriend. But Hannah is not the only one we’ll meet in tiny Clongarvin. Other folks include: • Adam, Hannah’s best friend, who has fallen for a musician, • Leah, the woman who “stole” Hannah’s boyfriend, Patrick, and • Alice, the friend of Hannah’s mother, who is dealing with a spouse and his substance abuse. All of the women’s emotional tales evoke bitter and sweet feelings. This was not as cupcake-focused as I wanted it to be, but it was still a decent diversion.
