It was ok not what I expect but I love the title and the cover. Good writing too but not the best plot

I absolutely loved this book! It had an enchanting plot, fabulous characters, and some good historical fiction moving through it. It’s one of those books where I found myself researching online some of the facts that were used and for me that’s an indicator of a really good book. I found myself imagining it as a Netflix series or fabulous indie movie. This will be one book I’ll be recommending a lot.

The Lost Bookshop by E. Woods is a full-length, stand-alone novel set in the golden twenties of the 20tieth hundereds.
I had high expectations for this book, but sadly it wasn't my cup of tea. There are just too many holes : like you just can't get a telephone number from another character's phone in 1921. And so it goes on I had too many scratch my head moments with this story.
On the upside, the book is well written, complex, spans the whole birth, death, passion and crime trope. There were lots of characters thrown at me, sometimes too many, a bit confusing.
All in all - and I really, really dislike being a debbie downer, TLB is not a read I'll do a re-read over - just quietly moving on to the next read that's gonna be fantastic, I just know it.
