The Late Bloomers Club

The Late Bloomers Club by Louise Miller
Read March 2021


I loved this book!  I saw it on a facebook book club group page and decided to give it a try.  It was just a really good, engaging, sweet story.  No real angst - characters I liked - fun story all around.  I do plan to read more from this author.  This book is about a woman named Nora who owns and works at a diner in a small town, just as she has all her life.  She grew up in the midst of the diner and her parents left it to her after they died.  Another character dies at the very beginning of the book and leaves her home to Nora, which sparks some big decision making about whether to sell the house and land to a big box store (and solve all her financial troubles) or 'do the right thing' for others (like she has all her life).  A very enjoyable story. 

Quote from the book...
All the suffering in the world arises from wishing ourselves to be happy.  All the happiness there is in the world arises from wishing others to be happy.
