The premise started out okay, but I got bored about halfway through. Glad I finished, wasn’t a horrible book, but I don’t think it was memorable enough of a read… so I probably won’t read it again.

Ok I officially like Jenny Colgan. Sweet. And twisted at the last moment. Loved it!

Books about bookshops are one of my favorite things and Jenny Colgan does them well!!

This is a stand alone that Zoe, from another series, shows up in so is it really stand alone? Or are all of her books just set in the same world?

An overall delight!! And the setting is so nice, I want this to be made into a movie so I can see Sofia’s house, the bookshop that just keeps going, and the amazing tree!!
