This is such a frustrating review to write, since the premise for the storyline sounded incredible when I read the extract from Readers First. However, everything quickly fell downhill and nothing was enjoyable for me after the first 100 pages. Paige is a young girl, that works in her local bookshop until the moment she learns that it is scheduled for closure. The decision is clear, she has to save it from closing down and keep the community heart strong. Although I admired how passionate she was about saving the bookshop, Paige as a character frustrated me. She sometimes was whiny and would act rather rudely towards people which I didn't appreciate. The writing style I really didn't like, the text messaging at times was childish. It was also such a short length so quick for reading, I felt the pacing was too fast and could have been fleshed out longer.

I hardly give books I finish reading 1 star, sadly it wasn't for me.
