“There must, undoubtedly, be an endless supply of unique and bizarre books to suit every reader’s interests. Anyone, it seemed, could be a reader.”

Well this story was all things precious. I truly did not anticipate giving this one 5 stars but I simply couldn’t give it anything less! I loved everything about this! This is the first physical book I’ve read in a long time where I haven’t wanted to get up and take a stretch break 30 pages in. This story was delightful! I was turning page after page loving every second of Maggie’s adventure to figuring out just how special books are and how special she is. These characters were charming, funny, and very well written. This is my first Shauna Robinson novel and it will definitely not be my last.

P.S. While this is a light hearted, happy ending set up story— there were still a few things that I did not see coming that added to the fun! Another highly recommended read from me!
