I was excited to read this book, but ultimately, I lost interest in it about halfway through. I was not invested in the story or characters and I found it a little bit depressing.

I have to confess the title drew me in. Anything about a book shop must be read. The cute picture on the cover helped also.

It's a lovely story about overcoming grief and learning to love again. I was drawn in from the first page. It made me laugh and cry.

I loved Aria's van life lifestyle. Getting to travel around and meet new people and do new things seems very exciting.

I highly recommend it. I definitely wanted to devour it and stay up all night.

Aria's Travelling Book Shop is a sweet follow-on to Rosies Travelling Tea Shop. Aria is still mourning her husband, who died suddenly 3 years ago of cancer, and is increasingly aware of her singleness. When she meets Jonathan, she questions her loyalty and devotion to her husband. This is a story of dealing with grief and new love. I enjoyed traveling through France with a group of "Van Lifers" as they sightsee and explore all the hidden gems of the countryside. Overall another special read from Rebecca Raisin.

What a sweet tender romance this was. Aria, who owns a traveling book shop, is grieving the loss of her husband who died 3 years ago. Jonathan, an author who met Aria once, falls instantly in love with her but decides to leave their growth of their relationship to fate. They meet on the road, him traveling for a book tour and her doing a circuit in France with her Van Life nomads. As they keep having chance encounters, Aria’s feelings grow. She learns that it’s ok to continue to love her late husband and find new love at the same time. Aria and Rosie’s strong female friendship is ever present in this book and it is simply the best. Thank you Netgalley and publishing house for the early copy to review.

Are you an avid lover of fiction? Do you love a story that includes smelling books, true friendship and a little bit of love thrown in? This book is for you!! This is my first time reading a Rebecca Raisin novel and I have to say that I have found a new favorite author. I adore Rebecca’s writing style and felt like I was the main character myself throughout this book. (I may have conversations within my head all the time as well…)

Aria is a nomadic traveling bookshop owner that has lost love and is not looking to find it again. Through a series of events Aria finds herself working through her past with the help of her best friend, her books as well as new and old loves. This is the perfect book for a person that wants to see how fiction impacts the heart and mind as well as how a love story would work out with a book lover. This is not your typical fiction book and I can see the book playing out in the movie in my mind. A must read! Thank you NetGalley for the opportunity to read!

I received a free copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

I can never resist a book that's about a bookstore (or in this case, traveling bookstore.) And this one was great.

After losing her husband to cancer, Aria she becomes a Nomad Traveling Europe in her Travel van turned bookshop. She is getting ready with her best friend and fellow nomad rosie, to travel around france following festivals for the summer. The book follows her along her journey of grief, finding herself, and learning to love again.

I loved this book and Aria's story in general. The lonliness she feels being a nomad and widow is heart wrenching. but the strength she finds in her friends and her nomad lifestyle is so uplifting. I loved watching her blossom from a widow to a woman who knows the pain of loos but understands its okay to love again. I hope to see more of her story continued and touched on throughout this series.

Oh I am so in love with Aria and Jonathan.... since I was a widow and found a 2nd chance of love, this story warmed my heart. I just wanted to hug Aria and tell her to go through the grief process, honor your lost love, and then not to be afraid to slowly open her heart up again. And that Jonathan... he was so patient and never pushed her. This is a cozy, slow-burn joining of 2 souls. Don't miss it!

I adored this book so much. It is a true representation of how much books mean to some. After her husband, TJ, died Aria started her travelling book van. She took this passion of hers and used it help heal her broken heart. She then meets Jonathan and realize her chance at love didn't die with TJ. I love stories of resiliency and the human spirit and this one showcased that in such a heart warming way!

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own. I’ll read anything by Rebecca Raisin! She hasn’t let me down yet. I enjoyed traveling the French countryside with Aria and this fun read. Aria grieves the loss of her husband and tries to see if she can open her heart again with her best friend by her side.

I read Rosies Traveling tea room and liked it a lot so I was excited to read Aria’s story. This book fell a little flat for me. I didn’t connect to the story as much and found myself not as interested. It’s an okay read, but falls far from Rosie’s story.

I liked this book. It was a cute enjoyable read, and it can be read as a stand alone, even though it's part of a series. There are some "holes" that I'm guessing the first book would fill, but I didn't feel as though this book was missing anything that I couldn't figure out. Aria, as the title suggests, runs a book shop from her van on the road, traveling around to different fairs and fetes. In this book the van lifers end up in France, following an itinerary that mirrors that of Jonathan, who I'm assuming that Aria initially met in the first book. Aria is using books and van life to escape her past, but at the same time those books are helping her heal. I would have been interested to see this book told from multiple povs, but it's good as is. Excellent beach read.

This was a quick for me and I thoroughly enjoyed it. What a carefree way of life to go from one place to another.

I wanted to be Aria. From the cover to the concept, everything about this book is excellent.~ I wanted it to never end!

I enjoyed traveling the French countryside with Aria and this fun read. Aria grieves the loss of her husband and tries to see if she can open her heart again with her best friend by her side.

I’ll read anything by Rebecca Raisin! This traveling shop series is so delightful. Perfect summer read vibes. Makes me want to open a traveling shop myself.

This book will make you want to sell everything and start life a new in a camper- full of quirky friends and beautiful locations. Aria is heartbroken after the loss of her Husband and sets out with her friends to fairs and festivals- selling books, the worlds that she hides inside since her tragic loss. But, she also has to decide if she is ready or even willing to fall in love again when a very charming, handsome, famous author ends up in her world. Can she move past her promise to her dying husband? This book is perfect for book lovers, and those who believe in second chances at love. The romance is so sweet and endearing- not too steamy at all. And Aria is hard not to love- and her friends are so fun, I wish I could meet them in real life.

I enjoyed this book. I loved the characters so much.
It is a very touching story that I can relate to.

I loved this! A sweet romance and just a nice, gentle read. Perfect for summer. I also loved the van life aspect of the book which is something I’ve always wanted to try. Overall a great story and enjoyable read!

A sweet light romance. Aria loves and works out of a van. She's an intrepid reader who caravans with her best pal Rosie as they host pop up shops out of their vehicles. Aria sells books so she had me from the start. She is wary of trying love again after a devastating loss but it's in the books. I liked the light airy vibe of the story and of course all the books. Jonathan won me over when he admitted he was a book sniffer, kindred spirits. Don't pass this one up. Thanks to HQ Digital and Edelweiss for the early read. I adore the cover too.
