Therapy. I honestly don't get what middle-aged woman would rather leave her spouse than deal with the conflict head-on.
The whole premise of the story being centered around an old bookstore is interesting, sure, but that's basically where it stops for me. The characters? Meh. I couldn't connect with any of them at all. The protagonist felt really flat, like her entire personality is just finding failed relationships and then suddenly discovering a love for books.
There is a sequel to this, but I don't think I'm picking that up anytime soon.
