Reading for Healing


The Lost for Words Bookshop by Stephanie Butland
🌟🌟🌟🌟


Loveday arrived at the Lost for Words bookshop as a teenager with a prickly personality, a mysterious past, and a passion for losing herself in books.  Over the years, she formed a connection to the lively owner but still kept her past a secret.  When she meets a charismatic poet and begins to form deeper bonds with those around her, she must decide whether to confront the people and events of her childhood head on.  This ended up being a bit darker of a book than I thought, but that is okay.  While slow at times, it definitely captured the loneliness of the main character and the way reading can help you survive even the darkest of circumstances.  I’m really glad that I read this book.  I received a digital copy of this book through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
