This Book Made Me Think of You caught my eye thanks to the title, synopsis, and cover. I have to say, the North American cover is much better than the others I’ve seen. As for the title and synopsis, what book lover wouldn’t love to receive a year of books as a gift?
Tilly’s story is one of growth and healing. She loved Joe passionately and misses him just as deeply. But I feel as though her story could belong to any of us. As she learns along the way, we eventually all lose someone who means everything to us. I found myself taking time to think of my own journey with grief.
While this book is over 400 pages, it is still a quick and easy read. Yes, there is a lot of talk about grief, but that doesn’t hold the story down. I guess what I’m trying to say is that the book isn’t a bog to read because of the underlying theme. There is still plenty of hope and joy.
The central setting of the book is a bookshop. And the main thing that helps move the story along is a year of books. The best part of a book featuring books? All of the recommendations! Each month is introduced with a selection of books that follow a particular theme. Along with the books that Tilly received as part of her gift, there are over 50 books mentioned.
Overall, This Book Made Me Think Of You is a fantastic read. I think every book lover will enjoy reading it. What could be wrong with a book about books and how they impact our lives?
