What's your next romantic bookshop read?

There's something magical about bookshops: the unique smell of old books especially, the hushed whisper of turning pages, the quiet promise that somewhere on the shelves, your next great romance awaits. So it's no wonder readers are drawn to stories set in these cosy havens. 

Books set in bookshops offer the perfect backdrop for love to flourish, bringing together the comfort of an escape from reality and the thrill of a heartwarming romance. And bookshop romances are often set in sweet villages, with quirky characters and a shared passion for reading, which makes us believe in love just a little more.

So next time you're looking for a feel-good story, pick up a romance set in a bookshop – because where better to fall in love than in a place where stories begin?
