The little shop of happy ever after
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 ...

This book is pretty much a love letter to reading and books. Nina seems to have the skill to match people to books as she has read so many and it was lovely. I found that Nina was so easy to relate to as I was a child who hid away in books and even as an adult it is one of my favourite things to do. I also liked that she was living in Birmingham considering that is the city where I work. It did make it seem very lovely ditching it all to live in Scotland but then I remember I can’t drive and that living life inspired by fiction probably isn’t practical.
