my first ever arc!!! i’m so thankful i got the chance to read this book and get to review it! love and chickens - 3,5 stars this story is about madeleine bennett who has a flock of chickens and goes to chicken shows. three years before the start of this book she was at a show and the judge, george cooper, misjudged her chicken. after the show she got in an accident and lost most of her flock. wanting to get back to her old status quo, madeleine takes place at a regional chicken show, where she meets george again. this stirs up some resentment in her but quickly she realises, that george is not the despicable human she thinks he is. i was sceptical when starting this book, since i have never seen someone write about chicken shows. i honestly thought it was going to be silly, but i was proven wrong. as this book is very short i feel like it lacked a little in character depth and the plot was a little all of the place, at leaset in the first half. that being said i had a little trouble getting into the book, since i didn’t really connect to the characters at first. i loved george, he’s such a man. all in all this was a very cute and cozy palette cleanser between books. i can only recommend!
