Brunch at Bittersweet Cafe is the second book in the Saturday Night Supper Club series by Carla Laureano. The story continues the series about three friends. These three women have a shared love of food! This particular story focuses in on the one who is a pastry chef. I can definitely say that after reading this book, it left me craving some culinary delights! The characters' love of food and making it special is conveyed well throughout the story.
I felt like I could relate to both of the main characters in this book. They both were struggling with knowing their place in life. Were they living their dreams or living the lives someone else had created for them or the life that they thought they might have wanted? Sometimes, we can get so caught up in life, we don't follow our dreams. Sometimes, we get caught up in what we thought we wanted, only to realize that is not what we really wanted. The story reminded me that it is good to reevaluate where we are in life and what our dreams are. As C.S. Lewis says, "You are never too old to set another goal or dream another dream." I love the journey that the characters go on and how they are faced with real life situations. I enjoyed the story and I look forward to reading the next one in the series!
