The Bookish Life of Nina Hill was a funny, light-hearted story and very much catered to the introverted and modern book lovers. Nina is quirky and witty and her internal dialogue had me laughing out loud quite often. She was relatable and I enjoyed her story as she navigates a new large family and a budding romance when all she really wants is to curl up with her book. The romance was on the light side and I thought it was...okay. It didn't make my heart race or make me feel butterflies, but it was kind of sweet. I also thought the end felt a bit rushed and too many things just seemed to ‘work out' robbing the story of any real climax, but having said that it was still a fun ride and was a good summer escape read. I don't think there is anything deep here and it definitely feels more like a bookish rom-com than anything else, but that's not a bad thing and if books, introversion and humour are your thing, then I think you'll enjoy it.
