The Bookshop on the Corner by Jenny ColganMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
I absolutely LOVED this book!!! So many novels now in this time of the virus sometimes take me some time to read because I stop when the story becomes too heavy. But indomitable Nina who is a shy librarian who really loves books is optimistic, honest, and a romantic. Hustle and Bustle Edgbaston is a big city and now they have a new view of what a library should be...and her beloved job is not more because the library powers that be have a new vision called Mediatech Services. Nina's love of books has nurtured a secret wish, to have her own bookstore. When she decides to act on this, her life is forever changed---buying a van, loading all the books in her apartment and moving to a vast farming community in Scotland called Kirrinfief. The beauty is breathtaking, the people all know each other, and Nina is lucky enough to rent a gorgeous barn that has been refurbished. I loved Nina's pairing of books with her buyers, her ability to jump in and help others, and her crazy friend's romantic advice. Just a wonderful book about the beauty of books, farms, animals, and life in a new place, if you haven't read it and want to be uplifted and to laugh, now is the time! Highly recommended!
