All in all, what book lover can deny a book about a bookshop and it's owner. I really appreciated the scenery in this book. The author was really good at getting me to feel grounded in a place I've never even been. There was the right balance of plot and just everyday moments. I especially loved all of the relationships described in the book. Looking forward to future reads from this author!

I really enjoyed this story!  It felt like an insider's view into running an independent bookstore.  I loved the characters, especially the seniors who are clients of the mobile book service.  A love story to books and how they build community and relationships.
