The Bookshop of Secrets

De: Mollie Rushmeyer

Narrado por: Lesa Wilson

A collection of lost books holds the clues to her family's legacy…and her future.



Hope Sparrow has mastered the art of outrunning her tragic past, learning never to stay anywhere too long and never to allow anyone control over her life again. Coming to Wanishin Falls in search of her family's history already feels too risky. But somewhere in the towering stacks of this dusty old bookshop are the books that hold Hope's last ties to her late mother—and to a rumored family treasure that could help her start over.

Only, the bookshop is in shambles, and the elderly owner is in the beginning stages of dementia and can’t remember where the books lie. To find the last links to the loved ones she's lost, Hope must stay and accept help from the townsfolk to locate the treasured volumes. Each secret she uncovers brings her closer to understanding where she came from. But the longer she stays in the quaint town, the more people find their way into the cracks in her heart. And letting them in may be the greatest risk of all…

Not what I expected

Although this was not my normal genre and I wasn't expecting the religious aspect, it was a sweet story. The narrator stumbled a few times but not terrible.

LOVED IT!!!!!!

I hope the author writes more books. A little mystery a little romance a little trauma and loved the “clean” read. Loved all the reminders of Gods promises to us. Great book.

Interesting

I thought I would be bored in the beginning but the mystery got increasingly intriguing. I’m a Christian and I have often found modern Christian novelists to be generic and “Hallmark.” This character represented being a survivor of a major horror. She also faced her fears and has grit. I liked the pirate aspect . The narration pacing and emphasis as well as pronunciation need some work.

I am looking forward to more from this author.

Beautiful story with real romance

Just bought a new car and found out I could listen to this book as I drive. I loved the mystery, the characters, the Christian references & Bible verses. The best part was that there was no sex. Romance, yes; but no sexual undertones. Very enjoyable read.

First time to read this author!

Pleasantly surprised. I enjoyed listening immensely. I look forward to more from Mollie. Narration was easy to listen to as well.
