Publisher Description
Five women friends, five charming cafés, two marriages hanging by a thread, one life adrift, a 'fake' new romance, a 'trophy' girlfriend, and some guilty secrets…
In the style of THE JANE AUSTEN BOOK CLUB comes a tasty slice of suburban life.
When five Australian BFFs, known as the Café Birds, get together over not-so-skinny cappuccinos and scrumptious cakes, they delve into the highs and lows of contemporary life, revealing a mix of feather-ruffling predicaments.
Paige, the ‘wise owl’ of the group, has to deal with both her marriage to a PTSD-stricken soldier and her budding business being on shaky ground.
Greyed-out, peace-loving ‘dove’ Caitlin grapples with shocking, life-changing revelations that send her into the arms of a famous – did someone say imaginary? – new beau.
Intrepid ‘eagle’ and self-confessed foodie Megan juggles a platter of guilty secrets that, if spilled, could threaten her carefully constructed life.
Lonely widow Nita, an ‘owl/eagle’ combo, feels disconnected from life and her newly Goth teenage daughter.
And pretty ‘peacock’ Grace seems forever cast as trophy girlfriend for a string of unsuitable partners, a self-destructive pattern that can’t go on ... not if her friends can help it.
Will the flock of friends successfully navigate their challenges together, or only manage to complicate matters further? Grab your copy of Alicia Hope's chick lit/romcom The Café Birds, and uncover the essence of real, tough-love friendships.
‘This novel presents a slice of life. The characters in the book are truly human. Readers will laugh, cry, and hope that they too can become members of The Café Birds.’ – reviewer KM Lance
