Synopsis: A new heartfelt novel about the power of
loneliness and the strength of love that overcomes it by critically
acclaimed author Roselle Lim.
Newly minted professional
matchmaker Sophie Go has returned to Toronto, her hometown, after
spending three years in Shanghai. Her job is made quite difficult,
however, when she is revealed as a fraud—she never actually graduated
from matchmaking school. In a competitive market like Toronto, no one
wants to take a chance on an inexperienced and unaccredited matchmaker,
and soon Sophie becomes an outcast.
In dire search of clients,
Sophie stumbles upon a secret club within her condo complex: the Old
Ducks, seven septuagenarian Chinese bachelors who never found love.
Somehow, she convinces them to hire her, but her matchmaking skills are
put to the test as she learns the depths of loneliness, heartbreak, and
love by attempting to make the hardest matches of her life. (Synopsis from Goodreads)
My Thoughts: This was very cute and I had a great time reading it. The synopsis really sold it for me. I also loved that the ducks on the cover had significance to the story. I feel like Sophie Go, in her desperation to prove herself as a matchmaker, took on a very hard job. These Old Ducks had been by themselves for a long, long time, and that can make people very set in their ways. I thought it was sweet the lengths she went to to find matches.
Sophie's mother is very unpleasant, and I really felt for Sophie having to put up with that kind of attitude.
This was just a lot of fun to read. It's cute and light. This is an easy book to recommend to people.
Roselle Lim is the critically acclaimed author of Natalie Tan’s Book of Luck and Fortune, Vanessa Yu’s Magical Paris Tea Shop, and Sophie Go’s Lonely Hearts Club. She lives on the north shore of Lake Erie and always has an artistic project on the go.
