I am so torn about this book. On the one hand, everything about being bookseller and connecting with books really resonated with me. However, the narrator wasn't the most likeable character. Like, there were moments that definitely made me cringe. It made sense for the story, I just didn't like him all that much.

There is some good rep in this book, with a Jewish main character and some other diverse side characters. The summary makes it seem like this is a love story, but it's definitely more focused on Aaron's journey of healing. There is a romance, but it really takes more of a backseat to the rest.
