Table for Five

When Abbie Finch is fired from her job, she finds she is all alone not knowing what to do with her life. She goes to a cafe where they have a table for people to sit that want to talk to other people. It means they are open to making a friendly neighborhood connection.

This is where she meets some of the most unlikely friends.

There is Ethel, she is a cut above the rest in terms of class! Bob, trying to build himself back up after his tools were stolen and he ends up homeless. Dawn who has no filter and Viraj who just moved to the area. They come up with the idea to try and make some money for the homeless shelter that Bob had to go to when he was down on his luck and this adventure changes Abbie's world for the better.

I loved it. The quirky characters and the beautiful story of never giving up no matter how bad it gets. These people all come from different backgrounds but they all found something in their friendships with each other. They all build something new with the support of other people who are all lonely too.

I really connected with this book. It really was one of the best womens fictions Ive ever read.
