A Lover of books

The title of the book intrigued me. However after reading the story it wasn't quite right. No matter. The book was a love affair on the joy and passion for books and how they can sometimes change everything .

Good Summer Read

It's slow in the beginning as the characters are introduced and timid, sweet Nina is overshadowed by the others. After Chapter 5, it picks up as it follows Nina on her journey in finding meaning for others through books and finding where she belongs in the world. This book would be a good languid, summer read.

Lovely Reading of a Middling Book

First of all, the title is a misnomer...there is no shop and no corner. And that’s fine, there is a Book Van and a farm. I read another book by this author and while pleasant, they were both predictable and formulaic.

Listened to this twice!

I loved this story, I could visualize all the wonderful things she talking about .

what every reader secretly wants

Good story, well written, loved the narrator because she captured all the characters and made the reader (me) want to see them happy.
