I found out about this book because the author is going to be at YALC, and as soon as I saw this book, I knew I had to read it. I ended up really enjoying it. It was exactly what I was expecting it to be, and exactly what I wanted. Working in a bookshop is my dream job, so I was really happy to find a book about that.
I really liked the writing. It was quick and easy to read. It was also a really engaging read, so I managed to get through it super quickly.
I LOVED the fact that it had feminism in there. I love seeing more and more books including feminism, and having feminist main characters, even when that isn’t the main point of the book. There were some point where I felt like they were just being silly with it though, like saying that the red and green man at pedestrian crossings are a way of putting women in their place.
I’m always happy to see books set in England, and this one was actually set near where I live, which was pretty cool.
I really liked Paige, the main character, and Holly, her best friend. I liked how passionate they were about saving the bookshop. I also just really enjoyed reading from Paige’s point of view.
The only character I didn’t really like was Blaine, but everything worked out the way I wanted with him in the end, so that was good.
Overall this was a really enjoyable read, and if you are looking for something quick and fun and bookish, I would definitely recommend this one.
