    Not a Fake Review
  

*by A***T on Reviewed in the United States on August 4, 2019*

This is not a fake review written by a friend, acquaintance or paid reviewer. The protagonist of this book is a narcissistic, self-absorbed and extremely unlikeable young woman which makes it difficult for the reader to care a whit about her. The premise of the book is preposterous and so far fetched as to be laugh out loud ridiculous......which would be ok if it wasn’t so long, boring and tedious. Basically the protagonist spends the entire book trying to solve the riddle of why her Uncle Billy abandoned her at the age of 13 after a fight with her mother. I figured out the answer early on as it was fairly obvious.....but the the author would not hv been able to torture us with boring ridiculous supposed literary clues...oh come on now.....why didn’t her uncle Billy just tell her the truth in his first letter. I give the book one star because the beginning of the book describing the protagonist’s life back East and her history background showed some promise. But how any author can depict a school teacher frolicking in the surf in LA happy that she has finally found herself while simultaneously calling her school in Philadelphia and saying she won’t be back just a few weeks before school is to begin, leaving a class of third graders with no teacher, is beyond me. Narcissism reaches new levels in this truly awful book.

    Fell Flat with Hard to Like Characters and Contrived Plot
  

*by C***R on Reviewed in the United States on April 26, 2019*

I really wanted to like this book, but its highly contrived plot just never caught my heart. The story begins with the death of Miranda’s uncle and the arrival of a mysterious package. The news of Billy’s death launches Miranda’s journey back to Los Angeles and the package launches the scavenger hunt that propels much of the plot. Most of the characters are two dimensional which it makes it hard to care about them. If you do not care about the characters, the secrets, lies, betrayals, and hurts are not devastating. If someone chose to tell me something important via a protracted scavenger hunt, I would be irritated and possibly insulted. I get it that Billy wanted to impart his news only if MIranda proved she really wanted to know, but really? Much that happens is expected from the relationship with Jay to the ultimate resolution of the great mystery with the resolution of the scavenger hunt. There are literary references and bookstore scenes that may interest readers, but that is enough to carry the story. I had hoped that this would be a charming, light, book perhaps with a touch of romance, but it was seriously short on charm and the romance had its issues as well. There are better books out there that follow a similar puzzle solving format.

    Touching, funny...the story stays with you
  

*by K***E on Reviewed in the United States on June 13, 2018*

What could be better than a novel that combines family drama and literary mystery?  I found myself engrossed in the story and enthralled by the graceful writing.  The Bookshop of Yesterdays is a moving tale that captures the turmoil of families while also offering a loving tribute to the quirky characters who inhabit books and bookstores.  It's an impressive debut novel by a gifted author.
