WATERSTONES BEST FICTION BOOKS OF 2023 PICK
WOMAN & HOME NOVEMBER BOOK OF THE MONTH
iPaper TOP FICTION PICK
There was only one thing on her mind. 'I must start a bookshop.'
Yeongju did everything she was supposed to, go to university, marry a decent man, get a respectable job. Then it all fell apart. Burned out, Yeongju abandons her old life, quits her high-flying career, and follows her dream. She opens a bookshop. In a quaint neighbourhood in Seoul, surrounded by books, Yeongju and her customers take refuge. From the lonely barista to the unhappily married coffee roaster, and the writer who sees something special in Yeongju - they all have disappointments in their past. The Hyunam-dong Bookshop becomes the place where they all learn how to truly live.
A heart-warming story about finding comfort and acceptance in your life – and the healing power of books.

An enjoyable and captivating story
My first audible book. Went into looking at the name and cover. Came out of it with flooded thoughts and feelings. Been a while a story has had this effect on me. Do give it a read. It’s worth every word.

The message is perfect for this generation and that’s what we need to slow down
It was a good and comforting listen. To know that burnout and anxiety is what most people are facing everyday gives the actual reflection of today’s society. The message is clear that if we ignore the signals that our body is sending us, we are in deep trouble
