What reader doesn't love a good story set in a bookstore? The Bookstore Sisters by Alice Hoffman was one of my Amazon Prime First Reads and as a short story, it was perfect to pick up when I needed something to read at that moment, but had other books pending.
This is a story about estranged sister Isabel trying to find a way to reconnect with her sister, Sophie, as well as with her past.. The family bookstore that was left in the care of Sophie is getting ready to go bankrupt. Can Isabel and Sophie come together, find their way, and save the bookstore.
I could have easily read a longer version of this beautifully written short story. The two most likeable characters are Violet, Sophie's daughter, and Hank, the dog that Isabel dog walks who somehow ends up going "home" with her.
