Book Overview
Nina Redmond is a librarian with a gift for finding the perfect book for her readers. But can she write her own happy-ever-after? In this valentine to readers, librarians, and book-lovers the world over, the New York Times- bestselling author of Little Beach Street Bakery returns with a funny, moving new novel for fans of Nina George's The Little Paris Bookshop . Nina is a literary matchmaker. Pairing a reader with that perfect book is her passion... and also her job. Or at least it was. Until yesterday, she was a librarian in the hectic city. But now the job she loved is no more. Determined to make a new life for herself, Nina moves to a sleepy village many miles away. There she buys a van and transforms it into a bookmobile -- a mobile bookshop that she drives from neighborhood to neighborhood, changing one life after another with the power of storytelling. From helping her grumpy landlord deliver a lamb, to sharing picnics with a charming train conductor who serenades her with poetry, Nina discovers there's plenty of adventure, magic, and soul in a place that's beginning to feel like home... a place where she just might be able to write her own happy ending.

A True Delight
Published by eakbooknook , 4 years ago
Jenny Colgan has such a wonderful way of telling a story that you instantly fall in love with. The characters are witty and make you laugh out loud. Everything about this book was wonderful and I recommend it to anyone who simply wants to sit back and enjoy a story.

A book that made my heart sing
Published by Renee , 5 years ago
I feel like this book was written just for me. I loved this book wholeheartedly. It made me laugh and smile, and uncharacteristically sad. I love the character growth of Nina. How much she changes from the beginning of the book and becomes a better version of herself. I look forward to reading the sequel and some of Jenny Colgan's other books.
