Twelve stories. Twelve months. Once chance to heal her heart…
When Tilly Nightingale receives a call telling her there’s a birthday gift from her fiancé waiting for her at her local bookshop, it couldn’t come as more of a shock. Partly because she can’t remember the last time she read a book for pleasure. Mainly because Joe died five months ago…
The gift is simple – twelve carefully-chosen books from Joe, one for each month, to help her turn the page on her first year without him.
Tilly sets out on a series of reading-inspired adventures that take her around the world. But as she begins to vlog her journey, her story becomes more than her own. With help from Alfie, the bookshop owner, her budding new following and her friends and family, can Tilly’s year of books show her how to love again?
Review:
Quaint, absorbing, and sweet!
This Book Made Me Think of You is a heartfelt, uplifting tale set in Primrose Hill, London, that draws readers into the lives of Tilly Nightingale, a young widow still grappling with the loss of her husband and the all-consuming grief thats preventing her from moving on, and Alfie Lane, a bookshop owner struggling to keep his family business afloat while also trying to fulfil a dying man’s final wishes.
The prose is genuine and fluid. The characters are heartbroken, hesitant, and kind. And the plot is an addictive, alluring blend of friendship, family, life, loss, introspection, support, forgiveness, community, new beginnings, love, and the healing power of books.
Overall, This Book Made Me Think of You is a charming, hopeful, beautifully written novel by Page that showcases her exceptional ability to create endearing, multilayered characters and engaging, heart-tugging storylines that captivate from start to finish.
