Cover of the print book The Lost Bookshop by Evie Woods, showing a small old looking building (nothing like the actual one in the novel) set in a bookshelf that is filled with old leather-bound books as well as vines hanging down both sides of the cover.

   Book 104: The Lost Bookshop. I'll read nearly any book with a library /bookshop in it even if it's in a genre (romance) not normally my jam. This was one of those "two stories converge" novels where one story takes place in the past and one is taking place pretty much nowadays. I liked the bones of this story a lot, some of the implementation a little less so. There is a lot of trauma (domestic abuse, involuntary commitment) as a backdrop as well as people wearing white gloves to read old books.
