As Valentina heads to London to settle her mother’s affairs and decide what to do about the bookshop, she also decides it’s time to learn more about who her mother was and why she left. Valentina hasn’t seen her mother since she was 12 and her mother abandoned her to move to London, so it’s bittersweet news to hear that her mother is gone and there’s no chance for a reconciliation or even an explanation as to why she left her child and never tried to contact her again. She is recently divorced and has inherited a bookshop in London from her estranged mother, Eloise. The story follows Valentina Baker, a librarian who is at a crossroads in her life. Happy tears, sad tears, angry tears – I cried them all. All opinions are my own.īased on the number of tears I cried by the time I got to the end of Sarah Jio’s new novel, With Love from London, I think it’s safe to say this book is going to end up on my Best of 2022 list. Publisher: Random House Publishing Group – BallantineįTC Disclosure: I received a complimentary copy of this book from Netgalley. One came out last week and the other comes out this week so if they sound good to you, you won’t have long to wait to pick up a copy. Today I’m sharing two wonderful reads that I enjoyed this week.

I did a few chores, read a little, and took a least a couple of accidental naps, lol. Happy Monday all! I hope everyone had a nice weekend.
