3 out of 5. this one is a quick short read. Overall it was ok. This is part of a 3 book series but can be read as a stand alone book.

Thanks to @netgalleys I managed to get my hands on advance copy of The Little Book Cafe #3.


This instalment focuses on Amy and Patrick, I haven’t read the previous instalments but if you love a sweet and endearing love story, then you really must read it. You won’t need to read the others as you can read them as stand alone.

Georgie Hill mixes romance and comedy together and it comes off quite well. My only criticism would be the suspense .... it needed a little more of it.

Having not read the previous 2 books in this series I was worried I would not be able to relate to the characters or plot. I need not have worried, I loved the book from the very beginning and now can’t wait to download and read the other 2. As a lover of reading and cake this book was perfect for me. A feel good story to cheer up a dreary winter day. Will look out for this author again.

I want to thank Harper Impulse through NetGalley for giving me the opportunity to review this book. The Little Book Cafe:Amy's Story was a light-hearted read following Amy as she navigates running a bookstore, a mom who just won't stay out of things, and feelings for a local author. I flew through this book. It was a fun read and perfect for curling up with a hot cup of tea. I loved watching Amy come into her own and gaining confidence to take a leap of faith.

A cute little love story! Page Turner! Thank you netgalley for the free arc in exchange for an honest review!

Amy's Story is the last book of "The little book café" series. I absolutely adored this book as much as I adored the whole series. It's rather a short book but full of events and mystery, you don't have time to get bored and I found the book and the whole series very well written. I can say easily that Georgia Hill is now one of my favorite author and will be delighted to read her next book! I WARMLY recommend The Little Book Café!!!! Absolutely fantastic!

I love this subgenre of romance where lovely people who love books run lovely book shops and find the balance between the fiction they escape in and the escapism of subtle changes in their lives. There is something so softly romantic about small communities bound by the pages of books and centred around the solace of a bookshop.

If you like Annie Darling and Jenny Colgan then this will be your jam. I hadn't read the other stories in the series (so far) but I really enjoyed the way I fell into the story, location and characters without any background and I will for sure pick up more books in this series.

This was a delicious autumnly read that made me want to steal away. I especially appreciated the vulnerability and insecurity of the heroine. Rather than overboard or overdrawn, Amy is not a pitiable character, rather a woman with a broken heart whose medicine may no longer be found between the pages but by the prospect of a real life romance. Absolutely delicious and a perfect pair for tea as you slip under a favourite quilt and turn off your mind and lose yourself in a lovely story filled with lovely people and gentle wisdom.

Unfortunately the book did not sweep me of my feet. It was slow, written in the way that did not make me wonder what would happen next, what would the characters say. I expected more after reading the description.

And so we come to the third instalment in this series - The Little Book Cafe. Another fantastic book. I am going to miss Tash, Emma, Millie and Amy but hopefully it won’t be long before Ms Hill brings out another series featuring them.

This book centres around Amy who runs the bookshop. She is lonely and sees herself as overweight and dowdy something her mother never tires of telling her. After being left at the altar on her wedding day she has never got over the humiliation. Will she ever find true happiness?

Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for an advanced read copy of this book in exchange for an honest and unbiased review.

The third of the friends in this tiny seaside town has her story now, and Amy’s story is a lovely one. Running the bookshop that is an adjunct to Milly’s Café, she’s such a perfect choice for the manager: well read, innovative, always willing (and able) to draw people into the wonder that is books and reading. Unfortunately, she’s got little to no self-esteem and is incredibly shy – perhaps some of it comes from her being dumped at the altar some three years earlier, or her move to the Far East when a child, only to return with her mother when the marriage went pear shaped. But, much is to be attributed to her mother’s rather pointed (and often cruel) critiques and utter lack of awareness of how they sting. From comments to her weight, clothing and lack of a man, Amy’s got only a handful of non-self-chastising moments, usually when she’s tucked up with a book or talking with Patrick. Of course, she’s second guessing every utterance from herself and him, and is utterly in love with the Irish author – his wit, charm, accent and kindness have her (and most women he encounters) under a spell.

But, it’s Halloween approaching, and aside from wrapping up the ‘literary course’ that she planned at the behest of some book club members, she also has to ‘manage’ the various locals in the book club, decorate for the holiday, plan a launch of Patrick’s latest books and somehow deal with a rash of vandalism that has hit her shop (and others) in town. With her clear need for people to be in harmony, a bit of spine in taking on her mother and her bad behavior, and a shot in the arm of confidence from starting to do things for herself with pushes from both Tash and Emma – she’s faced her biggest embarrassment in the form of her ex-fiance, and emerged stronger. Until Patrick disappears for weeks after kissing her – and leaves her wondering just how she’d be enough.

These three books are lovely small-town stories that are full of friendship, unique characters, a touch of angst (both self-imposed and not) and lots of cake. How could you not have cake with the bakery/café to hand – and well – Cake. Hill has managed to write in a sort of ‘shorthand’ for the three women we spend time with, as they’ve all known one another for years, but allowed the influence of the outside world and some rather unique characters to influence the moments. Combine this with the lovely ebb and flow of tourists and locals, the ever-changing sea and sky, and plenty of happy moments and this is a lovely series to just while away the hours with.

I received an eArc copy of the title from the publisher via NetGalley for purpose of honest review. I was not compensated for this review: all conclusions are my own responsibility.

I loved how quickly I engaged with the characters and cared about what happened to them. Each of the characters felt well-developed despite it being a short story. I have recommended this to several people as a feel-good read for a cosy evening.

A cute fast read. Loveable characters but typical. Still, enjoyable if you want to relax. I do like stories involving bookstores and coffee in any way

This is the first book that I read from the Little Book Cafe series. It was a light and fun reading. Nothing's too special about the characters, although I wouldn't say they aren't charming. I like the writing style and the pace was quite good. I found it comforting and familiar that the ambience in the book is set up to be a bookish environment.

Although I haven't read the other two books, I thoroughly enjoyed this book.
I love how realistic Amy's character and the other characters are. She struggles with insecurity, not made any better by her mother who keeps throwing things in her face! I could identify with that!!
How Amy learns to love and accept herself and allow herself to be loved makes a sweet and interesting story.

“The Little Book Café—Book 3” was the first book I read in this series. The story was fun and moved along well, just right for a light read. The situations seemed authentic, with realistic characters. Since the action took place in England, the slang terms took some getting used to, and I had to use context cues to decipher some of them. I could have done without the swear words and the one descriptive sexual scene, as they added nothing to the story. However, I still enjoyed the book and will read the others in the series.

A heartwarming story. My first Georgia Hill book but it won't be my last. I thoroughly enjoyed it Reading Tash's story was an emotional journey for me. I loved how she took back control of her life. A wonderful read and I am looking forward to reading more from this author.

I thought this could have been paced better. The whole setup and reveal about the ex was unsatisfactory to me. The male lead's backstory came out as an infodump, while it's nice story, it just didn't feel too connected to the actual story. More breadcrumbs should have been left so that when we finally got to know his past, there'd be a more of a relevance to his behavior.

This is the final installment in the Little Book Cafe series, and the best. Emotional in part, this book focuses on various relationships. A satisfying read.
