This is such a charming story, beautifully written. Her descriptions flow, and illustrate the world of the story, capturing you from chapter one.
The story itself focuses on three people's perspectives, entwined by common interests, a little magic, and love. I felt invested in each person and had to read 'just one more chapter' many times.
Many important and emotional topics within, and a lovely tribute to the importance and magic of books and how they can change our lives.
I would have liked a bit more magic and spookiness throughout.
