Greg had experienced a lot of personal problems in recent months, but he soon forgot about them when he met all the quirky characters at his local charity shop.

Very interesting book. I like the theme of animals running through the book. Also good insight into how a charity shop works.
I managed to read this amusing and informative Story about working in a Charity Shop in just 2 days.
It is entertainingly written and enlightens one on the running and daily events of working in a Charity Shop.
The various staff and customers make for an amusing and sometimes eventful storyline.
I rated it 9/10.
A funny and enjoyable read I would recommend it to family and friends.
This is a great book, wonderful to read if you have an interest in charity shops or have worked in a charity shop. Also if you have an interest in the Smethwick area.
Funny and keeps you hooked. Great book.
Excellent book. Good insight into how a charity shop works and all the good work they do.
Eagerly awaiting a follow-up.
A very topical book for these times. It deals with themes such as vegetarianism, the environment, recycling, animals in captivity and all the good work that charity shops do. The book is also very funny and entertaining.
I was recently given a Copy of this fascinating book and enjoyed reading it immensely. I felt transported into the World of Birmingham and surrounding areas, and the Life of a Charity Shop. Many of us peruse in Charity Shops and appreciate how many different things they sell for Very reasonable prices, and this book explains very well and amusingly what really is involved from day to day.
Loved reading this book, it's very witty. The writer highlights the important role that charity shops play, benefiting both people and our environment. A really enjoyable read if you love animals too. Highly recommended!
A very enjoyable read. It was interesting finding out what happens behind the scenes of a charity shop much more than I thought!
Great read!
Love the sense of humour in this book, highly recommend during the pandemic!
Gentle humour is just the antidote to these trying times. Good fun. Would make a great Christmas present!
I love this book! It was recommended by a friend as they know I like animals and helping in the community. It was a short but lovely read. I use charity shops all the time but had no real understanding of how they work and this was an interesting back story to the plot. The fun and witty writing made me smile and at times laugh out loud. It is a book to treasure and reread. Recommended!
This is an amazing read, throughly enjoyed it. Great insight to a lot of things and lighthearted with a humour also. Highly recommend
Really enjoyed this book, given to me as a gift . It was funny heartwarming, a real page Turner. Highly recommended. I hope there will be a squea to this bookl in the future .
This warm-hearted book explains in great detail why charity shops are such excellent community resources. They provide vital funds for good causes, bargains for the discerning shopper and a way for people to gain retail experience in a supportive, inclusive environment. And romance might also be on offer if your as lucky as Greg!
This book is short and straight to the point. "Life changes when you venture out and see life". Human beings are highly complexed and as such we like to place them in little boxes and categorize them. But it's not that simple. We all fall down in life at time. The trick is how to get back up and keep going. This lovely little book gives a perfect example of that. Charity shops not only give good value for money to the millions that shop across this country. But there also a haven for individuals that want to offer free assistance and gain experience in the fast-paced world we live in. There also a perfect tool for introducing less confident and troubled individuals a free pass back into the world of work and toll. It is self-evident that giving something back is far better than receiving something. This book offers an insight into the world of brick a brak, DVD's, flow charts, shoplifters, window dressing, steam ironing and odd and eccentric characters that venture into the doors of charity shop world. Tinged with humour and a simplistic yet realistic world of human interaction. This book is wonderful to read.
Enjoyable and easy-read book.. would love to know what happens with Greg and Grace..is there a follow on book I wonder ???
