I was given this book to read by a friend of mine who really enjoyed it. I briefly scanned the inside jacket of the book cover to get an idea of what it was about. It didn't strike me as a book that I would typically read, but I am always open to new authors and something different. I thought this was a truly endearing book with wonderful characters. The entire story revolves around A.J. Fikry's book store which he took over after his wife passed away in a tragic accident. Throughout the years, this book store had the ability to change his life in so many ways which he never would have thought possible. Gabrielle Zevin is very talented and does not disappoint!
