Bookshop Girl by Chloe Coles
Bennett's Bookshop has always been a haven for sixteen-year-old Paige Turner. It's a place where she can escape from her sleepy hometown, hang out with her best friend, Holly, and also earn some money.
But, like so many bookshops, Bennett's has become a 'casualty of the high street' - it's strapped for cash and going to be torn down. Paige is determined to save it but mobilising a small town like Greysworth is no mean feat.
Time is ticking - but that's not the only problem Paige has. How is she going to fend off the attractions of beautiful fellow artist, Blaine? And, more importantly, will his anarchist ways make or break her bookshop campaign? From Goodreads.
Isn't the cover gorgeous! Chloe is so very talented, not only did she write the book, but she illustrated the cover, too!
I was very lucky to read excerpts from very early drafts, and though they have probably changed, I'm so excited to read Bookshop Girl! I just know it's going to be a hilarious, feminist story, and I absolutely cannot wait to read it!
