This was a frothy, enjoyable read! I am always a fan of characters who pull themselves out of rough situations and by doing so, find themselves and finally find real love. It was such an interesting concept and I flew through it.

I enjoyed this book very much. If I had the time to read it straight through it is definitely one that one like have been able to. I didn't want to put it down. The characters were so entertaining and relatable. The whole subject of living off the grid was new, and was a welcome change from other books. I can't wait for the next one.

There isn't anything negative I could say about this novel, Rosie's Travelling Tea Shop! I have always had the desire to own my own Airstream and travel and see the world, and I love that the protagonist in this novel decides to (drunkenly) make this a thing!

Put together some baked goods and literary sounding tea, and I am your girl! I only wish that they had something like this near where I live, because I would go to it every week.

It was nice to also see the character development of Rosie throughout the novel. One that has been burned from her marriage, who decides to take matters into her own hands and seek out her own independency, is a character that I love rooting for.

I look forward to reading other novels by Raisin, and can't stop recommending this cute book to my book-loving friends!

I so enjoyed this fun story of a woman setting out on her own in a camper van after her husband leaves her for another woman. Rosie is funny, real and determined to make it on her own. A perfect fun read for pandemic times to take you away. Her adventures are fun for the reader to follow along with as she experiences life in a much broader sense then she knew before.

Thank you to the author and to Net Galley for the opportunity.

Love the Ambiance!
Everything about this book was great! There is something about Tea shops & Book stores that just does it for me. The adventure was so much fun. Maybe its that the characters are reminiscent of my inner dreamer. I will definitely be looking for the next book in this series.

Rosie's Traveling Tea Shop is a cozy read. It has wonderful descriptions of food, tea, and the British Countryside. What a cute and interesting concept to live a traveling van life. Some of the book was a bit flat to e and I ended up not finishing it. (Read over 50%) I would recommend it to any reader who enjoys Jenny Colgan books!
Thank you to the publisher and Netgalley for the ARC to review.

this was a really cute and adorable book! i loved getitng to read this one early and i thinak netgalley for that grand opportunity!!!!!!

Rosie is just not spontaneous enough - her soon-to-be ex-husband tells her as he walks out the door on her birthday. After drinking several Shiraz bottles, Rosie is awakened by an older man delivering the hot pink travel van that she had agreed to purchase from him the night before. The van's name is Poppy. Rosie learns she told him that Poppy would be a traveling tea shop following the English countryside's festival circuit.
Rosie's Traveling Tea Shop is an amazing, wonderful, lite, funny, feel-good look at how Rosie tackles her new life on the road, the uncertainties, the friends she makes, and the loves she finds.

I was given a free copy of this book from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

So I'm normally all for the books that are about a woman getting her groove back, but I feel like I wanted a bit more from story. I was leftwanting more strife, more emotion, more romance... it was quaint. That's the adjective I have. I can appreciate Rosie as a character and the struggles she goes through, but everything after that just kind of happens, there's no buildup and she suddenly has a venue for her tea van, which isn't that easy. I think I wanted this book to be more realistic and watch a strong woman rise to the occasion. I purchased "Aria's Traveling Book Shop" by Rebecca Raisin to give her another try. Sometimes I love book 2 and the author grows more!

I started Rosie’s Travelling Tea Shop and finished it in one day. I absolutely loved this book. I just could not out it down. ⁣

This is book filled with food, books and smiles. I loved every minute. If you need a feel good book- that may make you a little hungry- you will love this. Perfect for fans of Jenny Colgan. Thank you Netgalley for my copy of this book.

Rosie's cheating husband leaves her on her birthday. While drunk she buys a van and decides to become a nomad. She turns the van into a traveling tea shop. On her travels she meets some amazing. Cute book.

Set in the UK, this is the everything is fine, hashtag vanlife, hashtag digital nomad, baked goods and old books, romance and friendship book. It came out on the 16th and is an antidote to the burnout you've been feeling. Recommended for a feel-good read!

This book starts off with a bang!! It will make you think about how your life could be different if you had made different decisions. Writing is verbose in some areas and I feel like the characters could have been more developed but, all in all, the book was entertaining and adventurous.

I received an ebook ARC from Netgalley and this is my voluntary, honest review.

What a cute book! I did not know what to expect going into this book, but I’m so glad I read it. And seriously - this book made me envy the lifestyle of the nomads that drive pop up vans from festival to festival.

Rosie is a planner - she has her entire life planned out until she is old. She is a sous chef at a Michelin rated restaurant and next on her list is starting a family. Only her husband informs her on her birthday that he wants a divorce - and he is already with another woman. He tells her he hopes she finds someone she is passionate about / and he knows it isn’t him.

Rosie is devastated - in a drunken stupor she buys an old pop up van online and has it delivered the next day. Can she really do this? Starting a traveling tea shop really does seem to be her dream job / but can she make enough money? Can she find happiness?

She meets great people along the way / and also some not so great people. The descriptions of life in a van are simply divine - I really felt as if I was traveling with Rosie, Aria and Max.

I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. The opinions stated above are mine without biases.

Such a fun, sweet read! This is the perfect book for a relaxing weekend spent indoors with a good cup of tea and your favorite dessert.

Thank you to Netgalley and Harper 360 for this ARC in exchange for my review.

Rosie is a sous chef who has her whole life planned out. That is, until her boyfriend admits to having an affair and dumps her on her birthday. After his accusations of her never being spontaneous, she awakes from a drunken night to find herself the proud new owner of a campervan, which she decides to take on the road to sell tea and pastries.

This book was sweet and fun to read. While I thought the plot seemed a bit familiar, about halfway through I realized I had trouble putting the book down because the story was so engaging. Rosie's travels and adventures (along with the delicious descriptions of Rosie's tea and food creations) make this story a draw for people wanting a mental escape from their current situation. The characters she meets along the way really compliment her story. The ending and other parts of the book felt a little rushed, but as a whole I enjoyed this book and would recommend it.

A note: the book referenced Rosie's need for cleanliness as her being "a little OCD" and having "OCD tendencies." I would love to have seen another adjective chosen rather than using a mental health reference for a character who did not seem to otherwise have this illness.

Rosie's husband might have accused her of being a cold fish and entirely predictable but boy has she changed up her life! Buying a pink food truck and traveling around the UK selling tea and cakes, well that's gonna force you to go with the flow. Luckily, Rosie meets Aria, who has a traveling book shop, early on and the two of them join forces. This being a Rebecca Raisin novel, fans know that there will be some chuckles, a little romance, and some personal growth. Thanks to net galley for the ARC. This is a good relaxing read.

3.5 stars

I am a sucker for any story about an English woman finding herself through a new business enterprise and falling in love along the way. Rosie's Travelling Tea Shop more than delivers on this front, although I have to admit that it fumbles a bit at the last hurdle.

The book starts out so strong with a fantastic cast of characters, a great concept, and some really lovely relationship building as Rosie opens herself up to the Van Life. However, I felt like two really important elements were underdeveloped.

It felt like Rosie did not really spend that much time with the leading man and waffled for far too long about whether or not he was the right one for her. Considering how indecisive she is, the immensely swift conclusion gave quite a bit of whiplash.

For a book about traveling the English countryside in a van and discovering the beauty of the world, we barely got any description of what was around her. A location would be mentioned and described as pretty, but I wanted so much more.

However, even with those issues, I found this book incredibly charming and I am so stoked to see where Raisin takes these characters in her next book!

Thank you to NetGalley and HQ Digital for an ARC of this book in exchange for a fair and honest review!

This book started out good and I was getting into it. I liked Rosie and despised her husband (what kind of person leaves someone on their birthday!). The atmosphere seemed to be building up to something I'd like.

But on closer glance the actions just seemed rushed and glanced over to get quickly from one event to another (divorce to taking off in Poppy the travelling bus). The timeline just doesn't seem realistic. Then both Rosie and Max just seemed to waiver back in forth from liking each other to avoiding each other. They both really annoyed me at times. The change in attitude happened so quickly and multiple times without any real reason for the change.

The book is being labeled as General Fiction/Romance. You definitely get the hint of romance, but don't actually see a relationship until the last few pages of the book.

Overall, I did enjoy the book. But it fell flat in several places for me.
