I loved the introduction to this book. It explains that it's a story for readers who love books, and outlines with light humour the places where the author recommends settling down with a good book. I related strongly to the idea of reading in bed, and forgetting who is who as I drop off to sleep; this is my usual mode. Travelling is also, in my experience, an excellent time to read. I don't read in the bath - and the author's description of books drying out on radiators conjured up a depressing image - but I enjoyed all her other suggestions.
For more by the same author, I'd recommend [[The Loveliest Chocolate Shop in Paris by Jenny Colgan|The Loveliest Chocolate Shop in Paris]] If you're interested in novels about people who change their job and perspective in life, then [[Evening Class by Maeve Binchy]] is a good read.
