Overall, I enjoyed this little book very much. It was written in 1917 so it was somewhat dated, but the story of a woman who buys a travelling bookstore was pretty much irresistible, especially for anyone with a love for books like me! The two main characters, Helen McGill and Roger Mifflin are exactly that - characters. I found the ending of the book to be a little bit of a stretch but it probably was the type of ending prevalent in literature of the time-period. Overall, I would recommend this one to any book lover. I also have a copy of the sequel, The Haunted Bookshop, that I hope to get to soon.
