About this listen

The Lost for Words Bookshop is a compelling, irresistible, and heart-rending audiobook from author Stephanie Butland

Loveday Cardew prefers books to people. If you look carefully, you might glimpse the first lines of the novels she loves most tattooed on her skin. But there are some things Loveday will never, ever show you.

Into her hiding place - the bookstore where she works - come a poet, a lover, and three suspicious deliveries.

Someone has found out about her mysterious past. Will Loveday survive her own heartbreaking secrets?

Critic reviews

I don't usually write reviews as I never know what to write but this book is worth the effort. The characters come to live effortlessly and you soon find yourself into the shoes of Loveday, the main character without even noticing it. You feel sorry for her but again you don't as she is so strong and likeable. I had never listened/read to a book more than once but with this one, I just had to (a couple of years between the 2 listens). I must say the reader has a lot to do with it as I love her voice and delivery. I certainly hope you enjoy this as much as I did.
