Synopsis: Poppy Banks would rather be writing mysteries than writing listicles for her dead-end job at Thought Buzz. But after a series of rejections, she’s ready to accept life on the sidelines as a plus-size woman. Her aunt Margot is the one person unwilling to give up on her niece’s dreams and tells her so at their secret yearly lunches.
But all of Poppy’s beliefs about herself are challenged when her beloved aunt dies and leaves her niece a grand surprise—a trip to her villa in the French Riviera. There, she learns her aunt intends to leave her stunning villa and secretive writer's residency to Poppy—if she can finish her novel in six months.
When the writing countdown begins, Poppy realizes she has more to confront than her writer’s block. Family drama, complicated romances and self-doubt all threaten to throw her off course. In this fun and heartwarming debut, Poppy must decide if she can live up to her aunt’s—and her own—desire to be the main character in her own life. (Synopsis from Goodreads)

My Thoughts: Isn't is everyone's dream to be the main character in their life? I feel like Poppy has some challenges in her life that I can relate too.
I was sucked in by the synopsis for this story. It just sounded like a lot of fun, and something that I definitely wanted to read.
This book was a lot of fun! Having France as the backdrop of Poppy's new playground was great! I don't know how true it is to France, I've never been there, but I did enjoy reading about it.
I also really enjoyed all the drama that Poppy encounters while trying succeed in writing her novel and inheriting the villa. I kept flipping pages because I wanted to see what was going to happen next.
I could see a lot of people enjoying this one. It's an easy breezy read with a great locale.
