(free review copy) a quirky bookshop novel that is about 25% about the bookshop and 75% about overcoming trauma. It is a powerful book and hit all of my emotions, but there were definitely parts that hurt my heart to read.

abookishgirl's review against another edition

I can’t exactly say “I liked it”, which would be 3 stars, because it was quite sad, and it made me sad. And since I rate according to the goodreads system, I’m going to have to give it 2 stars for how it made me feel.

It is, however, well-written and emotional and quite beautiful in places, so in terms of that I’d give it a 3 or even 3.5. I just don’t like books that are this unhappy, but it might be just the thing for someone else.

This isn't my usual type of book, but I really enjoyed it just the same. I kept thinking I'd set it down, but kept picking it right back up. It's heartbreaking and heart mending and all the grey.

It was decent but nothing too profound enough to make a higher rating
