The Bookbinder's Guide to Love
by Katherine Garbera
Thank you to Mills & Boon and Katherine Garbera for a copy of the Bookbinder's Guide to Love in exchange for a honest review.
This was a quick, cosy and enjoyable read with some great dialogue, fun dynamics between characters and full of feels. I enjoyed the cozy, supportive friendships between the core cast of supporting characters. I liked the witchy vibe and bookish nods in the story. The characters are all likeable and mostly relatable, though I thought the emotions felt a bit rushed at critical points of the story and would build more connection with character with a little more insights to their character growth.
I thought romance was a little underdone for my tastes, I felt this was a happy for right now type of ending between Sera and Wes. The spark didn't catch for me, they seemed to fall into lust and then go to 100 mph into love in a melting pot of emotions, which left me feeling a little troubled about the happy ever after of the story. I would have little to seen a bit more foundation established given the story has a number of weeks duration for a firmer relationship basis to be laid.
