How to Find Love in a Book Shop by Veronica Henry FIC Hen

When Emilia's father passes away after a short illness, she inherits his bookstore.  Julius was wonderful at selling books but not so great at keeping them.  Translation: The bookstore isn't in the greatest financial position.

With help from her best friend Andrea who also happens to be an accountant, Emilia sets about trying to turn things around.  Along the way she receives help from a variety of long-time customers, each of whom have their own story to tell.

Given the title of the book, it's probably not giving anything away that love is found in a bookshop.  But each couple's journey to love is different and fun to read.  There's Jackson who was thrown out of the house by his girlfriend after the birth of their baby.  Solid and steady June with an unknown fling in her distant past.  The woman long-single Julius fell in love with later in his life.  And, of course, Emilia who misses her father desperately but finds herself drawn to a member of his old string quartet.  To name only a few.

A warm, cozy book set in the Cotswolds in England, this was a fun book to read.
