The Sweet-Shop Owner, by Grahm Swift

After reading the cover of this book I got intrigued by the idea to read about one day as a Sweet Shop owner and decided to give it a go. And let me tell you this after reading the cover I got kinda disappointed.

The book is not really about just one day but more about his whole life from starting the store, his wedding, the war, his kid and so on.

But it is an intriguing book that even after I put it away lots of times always pulled me back and I even finished it without getting the real punchline of the book.

So is The Sweet-Shop Owner a good book? I don’t think so but it offers some nice parts that make up for the many bad once. I would not recommend the book but when you are low on books to read then just give it a go and let me know what you though of it.
