The Bookshop on the Corner
by Jenny Colgan
This book got off to a slow start for me, but once Nina got over losing her job and moving ahead with the bookshop van, it started to pick up. I enjoyed reading about Nina figuring out her new life in Scotland and growing into herself. She definitely started off as a shy, mousy character but then seemed to grow more confident.
It was a bit strange that her friend, Surinder, could just take vacation from her job for weeks without repercussion, and then towards the end, there is a hint that Surinder has something in the works regarding her career, but then nothing more comes of it. I hoped that the second book would help answer that, but it didn't.
It bothers me that the image on the book (and even the title itself) implies that it is a bricks and mortar store when it obviously is not.
