The Little Paris Bookshop by Nina George
Monsieur Perdu calls himself a literary apothecary. From his floating
bookstore in a barge on the Seine, he prescribes novels for the
hardships of life. Using his intuitive feel for the exact book a reader
needs, Perdu mends broken hearts and souls. The only person he can't
seem to heal through literature is himself; he's still haunted by
heartbreak after his great love disappeared. She left him with only a
letter, which he has never opened.
After Perdu is finally
tempted to read the letter, he hauls anchor and departs on a mission to
the south of France, hoping to make peace with his loss and discover the
end of the story. Joined by a bestselling but blocked author and a
lovelorn Italian chef, Perdu travels along the country’s rivers,
dispensing his wisdom and his books, showing that the literary world can
take the human soul on a journey to heal itself.
My Thoughts
I really enjoyed reading this book. It had enough characters and story line to keep me reading. It also has a little mystery going on.
