Really lovely feel-good read about a woman, Nina, who goes from being laid-off librarian to traveling bookstore owner! It's every reader's dream! Wished it had more descriptions of Scotland and setting in general

Review | It started out “eh”. It got really sweet though.
It was alright! A little predictable, a little more romance-focused than I usually like, but I loved her adoration of books, and I wanted to steal her job one day. It had a few good messages about things like social services and projecting your version of a perfect partner onto people. Cute read, cute concept, dragged on at times but there you have it.
