A book about book lovers for book lovers is the best possible way that I can describe this book that deserves all the hype and more.
Nora is a passionate and determined literary agent. Charlie is an editor with the Midas touch. Cursed with loosing her many exes to small town romances, Nora is more determined than ever to focus on her career and her pregnant sister, Libby. That's until Charlie waltz's into her life, over and over again.
This book bends, snaps and re-moulds (not all) but many a romcom formula through the unconventional choice of protagonist and unexpectedly charming setting of Sunshine Falls. It is a love letter to New York, with a hit of small town, quirky characters. Oh and there is an absolute litany of figurative devices that make any book lover sigh. Pair this with the most delectable steamy scenes and you have yourself the ultimate romance novel.
If you're after a quick romance read that explores sisterhood, love and responsibility I highly recommend you pick up a copy of Book Lovers. Immediately.
