In this first book of the Tales from the Goose Creek B&B, you'll fall in love with a small town that feels like coming home. Its quirky characters and their many shenanigans will make you laugh out loud as they touch a place in your heart. Even though retirement is still three years away, Al Richardson is counting the days. He anticipates many enjoyable years in which every day feels like Saturday. But Al's wife, Millie, has different plans for their retirement. When she learns that a Victorian-era home is up for sale, Millie launches a full-blown campaign to convince Al that God's plan for them is to turn that house into a B&B. But a B&B won't be the only change for the small Kentucky town. A new veterinarian has hung up her shingle, but she's only got one patient—the smelly dog belonging to her part-time receptionist. And sides are being taken in the issue of the water tower, which needs a new coat of paint...but no one can agree who should paint it. The situation is coming to a head. Who could have imagined a town protest over a water tower? And who would believe it could culminate in an illegal parade? Get lost in a novel that reminds you why you love reading.

- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5The whole vibe about „wife loves her grumpy husband who makes jokes about how your life is never yours again after marriage“ is kind of strange, in general the extremely thankful thoughts of a wife for her husband and how much she loves him are described irritatingly frequently. Plus the big relief that the boyfriend/ soon to be husband (after 3 weeks of knowing each other. ? ok) is not Colombian but AMERICAN thanks god, they are not moving to South America but ITALY thank the lord! So he is no drug lord! - feels simply racist to me. Can’t imagine this is amazing to read when your from South America. Being reduced to stereotypes and people being utterly relieved that „their daughter isn’t marrying one of those people“. To be honest, I was actually shocked that people just wrote what a nice and comforting read this was. I find this book to be quite problematic and conservatively written
