She read
Rose, weary of her monotonous and unfulfilling jobs in London, yearns for a change. Her mother, who passed away when she was young, nurtured in her a passion for horticulture. Enamored with the Bloemenmarkt (floating flower market) in Amsterdam, she embarks on a journey to open her own stall at the market. Renting a somewhat dilapidated houseboat, she finds herself next to one occupied by an attractive, appealing, yet grumpy artist. Will Rose be able to thrive in the city of canals, and what will transpire with her sullen neighbor?
This heartwarming and uplifting tale, with its enchanting fairy tale quality, offers a refreshing respite in these challenging times. It’s impossible not to root for Rose, whose optimistic outlook and tendency to share her thoughts candidly are endearing. However, my favorite character is Amsterdam, beautifully portrayed by the author.
This marks the beginning of a new “floating shop” series, promising to be a charming and captivating journey.
