The Magic of Lemon Drop Pie
(Adobe EPUB eBook, Kindle Book, OverDrive Read)
An uplifting novel about a heartbroken young pie maker who is granted a magical second chance to live the life she didn’t choose. . . . from the bestselling author of The Enlightenment of Bees.
Lolly Blanchard's life only seems to give her lemons. Ten years ago, after her mother’s tragic death, she broke up with her first love and abandoned her dream of opening a restaurant in order to keep her family’s struggling Seattle diner afloat and care for her younger sister and grieving father. Now, a decade later, she dutifully whips up the diner’s famous lemon meringue pies each morning while still pining for all she's lost.
As Lolly’s thirty-third birthday approaches, her quirky great-aunt gives her a mysterious gift—three lemon drops, each of which allows her to live a single day in a life that might have been hers. What if her mom hadn’t passed away? What if she had opened her own restaurant in England? What if she hadn’t broken up with the only man she's ever loved? Surprising and empowering, each experience helps Lolly let go of her regrets and realize the key to transforming her life lies not in redoing her past but in having the courage to embrace her present.

After several heartbreaks and set-backs, 33-year-old Lolly Blanchard discovers a list of life goals written by her teenage self and begins wondering about the what-ifs from her past, especially her former love, Rory. When her great-aunt gifts her three magical lemon drops that are said to let her live a day in her life if she had chosen her what-ifs, Lolly gets to see what her life would've looked like if she had made different choices. Going back doesn't always reveal a better life for Lolly, and she begins to realize the importance of living in the moment instead of chasing the past. With several jumps between potential lives, this story feels a bit like a mix of What Alice Forgot and A Christmas Story, with similar sweet and heartwarming life-lessons that are seeming to become hallmarks of Linden novels. The Magic of Lemon Drop Pie depicts the importance of letting go of what isn't working and following one's heart, and is a strong recommendation for readers of Katherine Center and Rebecca Serle.COPYRIGHT(2022) Booklist, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
