I can’t take it.
Before I was even done with the very first chapter, I was almost ready to throw in the towel. I just cannot follow the flow of the narrator (first is Lynn Winter, owner of Paradise Café in Kentucky, USA). The content is extremely superficial, and it failed to engage me as the reader. I failed to sympathize with Ms Winter or follow her along on her trip of passion to open her first café.
The narration is too abrupt - in one instance, somebody out of the blue just called her for a position, and coincidentally, it was someone from a place which she was vying to work at but had no courage to apply. An excerpt (pg 14):-
‘How in the world did you ever get my name?’ I asked her.
‘I don’t really know.’ she said.
Hello, is this a book on miracles or women’s ventures?
A good book, regardless of fiction or non, is one that is able to draw its readers to feel ’emotionally related’ to the characters. Good authors should know how to create that magical link.

This is one book not worth spending your time reading it.
