The best-selling author returns with a hilarious, heart-warming and happy-ever-after book which tells the story of Nina, who follows her heart, and her dreams, to a new life in the countryside.
After the Birmingham library she works in turns into a retail complex, Nina realises she’s missing her old job terrible, so with the kernel of a business idea, takes a trip to Scotland to look at a van which she wants to transform into a mobile bookshop bus working in the Highlands.
Once there she discovers there’s no computers, lots of shortages and has to spend hours in the freezing cold, driving around with her tiny stock of books. Then there’s the issue of how the local community is going to take to her, particularly when she stalls the bus on a level crossing…
A delicious read that celebrates the joys of life, love and the love of reading a good book that you can’t put down. Heartwarming and uplifting, it’s the perfect book to read while sitting on a beach or in a sunshine-soaked garden.
