The Lost Manuscript by Cathy Bonidan

3.0

Comprised of only letters, and a few emails, this translation from the French text is eloquently written. The characters are surprisingly well developed considering the reader only gets to know them by reading their correspondence. The story has twists and turns I never expect when uncovering a mystery of a lost manuscript. However, while the manuscript and its author are the car that drive us through the story... the real story is about how the manuscript impacted the lives of its readers. The core of this book is the love for books themselves. It is a love letter to books and the characters that touch our hearts every time we pick up a novel.

I recommend this for a light, quick read. It’s cute, a little dramatic, and honestly a bit silly at the effort the main character goes through just to solve this mystery.
