I received this book from Netgalley. The first thing that drew me to this book was the title. The second was the cover. I love books about bookshops so I was excited to read it. I honestly didn't even read the blurb before I started.
The first few chapters were a fairly interesting back story but not quite what I was expecting and not quite what I'm interested in. It took a little bit long to really get into the juicy part of the story.
When the girls got to Venice and they said they'd do some work if they needed to, the first thing that came to my mind was YOU NEED A VISA. Thankfully this was actually addressed!
I think that the idea that Luna comes up with for the book shop is a great idea. Not one I'd use, because I love choosing my own books, but a great idea for people who don't have the time or inclination but still want new books!
While I enjoyed the parts that happened in the book shop , I wasn't crazy about the added parts with the tarot cards/seeing the future. I also went back and read the blurb on Netgalley and its not mentioned there at all. I think if this hadn't been such a big part of the story, my rating would have gone up to 4 stars.
