The Little Bookshop of Love Stories

The Little Bookshop of Love Stories - Jaimie Admans

Having previously read this author and enjoyed her writing style, I had to pick up this book.

Winning a bookshop is every book lovers dream, however this one came with financial difficulties. And a man who is there everyday but not employed, yet knows more about the bookshop than the owner.

At times I did find this story a little bit repetitive, especially in the first half. I found that a lot of things did repeat =, especially in the same chapter. After half way the story started to pick up and get moving.

There are some great characters in this book and also some great imagery that you can picture, the little village and shopping square among them. There are a lot of references to the film Anastasia, if you haven't seen it then you might not know exactly what is being mentioned in some parts.

An enjoyable read, I can see there being some sort of follow up. Lets see what happens next!

The rebound flung him away from me. As he let go of my arm, we fell apart like a tree struck down the middle by lightning. I staggered backwards, calves ramming against the coffee table, pushing it towards the sofa. Terror now ruling my fear, I grabbed the ceramic vase toppling from the table. I swung it ineffectually at his head. I was briefly su
