The little shop of happy ever after

Average rating4
Given a back-room computer job when the beloved Birmingham library she works in turns into a downsized retail complex, Nina misses her old role terribly - dealing with people, greeting her regulars, making sure everyone gets the right books for their needs. Then a new business nobody else wants catches her eye: owning a tiny little bookshop bus up in the Scottish highlands. No computers. Shortages. Out all hours in the freezing cold; driving with a tiny stock of books ... not to mention how the little community is going to take to her, particularly when she stalls the bus on a level crossing ...

I was drawn in by the premise, and for the most part, the book didn't disappoint. I wasn't a huge fan of the ending and how quickly things unfolded, in a way fitting with the dream book world lens Nina views the world around her. There could have been less romance and more purpose around Nina learning who she is when she doesn't have her nose behind a book. All the same, I enjoyed the first 3/4 of the book, which kept the book at 3 stars for me instead of 2.
