This was so cute and wholesome. I really liked all the little characters and how it ended for all of them

So close to a five star it just didn't hit me the same way as it might have done a few months or maybe even weeks ago. I loved the story and if it had leaned slightly more into the emotions or not done it at all and just stayed the story of a bookseller I think I would have given it that 5 star stamp.
the ending was perfect and was the great rise I needed after the middle almost made me dnf as i failed to read the content warnings.

Ein bisschen zu kitschig und zwischendurch auch echt etwas merkwürdig, aber trotzdem ganz nett als Zeitvertreib. 

Ein paar Sachen fand ich etwas zu klischeehaft, schwierig und etwas überaltert . Beispielsweise die Aussage, dass Jungen Mädchen schupsen wenn Sie sie mögen. 
Zumal die Geschichte auch ohne viele dieser Kleinigkeiten funktioniert hätte.

Die Beschreibung auf dem Buch und andere Rezensionen haben mich angelogen. Das war kein herzerwärmendes Buch, sondern zum großen Teil einfach nur deprimierend und hoffnungslos.

Ich bin immer noch am überlegen, ob das Buch zwei oder drei Sterne verdient hat. Manche Sachen fand ich ganz schön, andere ganz furchtbar und störend. Ich finde es nämlich respektlos, Leuten Namen von Romanfiguren zu geben und sie nicht mit ihren gegebenen Namen (bzw wie sie gerne genannt werden wollen) anzusprechen. Außerdem
häusliche Gewalt aufzunehmen und dann so zu tun, als wäre am Ende Friede, Freude, Eierkuchen.
Wenn ich so darüber nachdenke werden es doch nur zwei Sterne.
