Elizabeth @Silver's Reviews - A Lovely, Bookish Read
Loveday Cardew works in a bookshop owned by Archie.
Working in a bookshop is perfect for Loveday because she is a shy almost introverted person through no fault of her own.
THE LOST FOR WORDS BOOKSHOP is a lovely read and will make you jealous of Loveday’s job, but not of the heartaches she keeps hidden.
Besides the books and the bookshop, the characters in THE LOST FOR WORDS BOOKSHOP are the best, especially Archie....loved him. He is a bit on the unorganized and fly-by-night type of person, but he loves his job, loves Loveday, and loves how Loveday helps him keep the shop going.
Loveday is lovable, sweet, and a bit on the odd side.
Nathan is someone I would like to know and someone very sweet to Loveday.
Rob was annoying and unlikeable.
The secondary characters worked well with the main characters and added mystery and tension.
As THE LOST FOR WORDS BOOKSHOP goes back and forth in time, a few mysteries and secrets about Loveday’s childhood are revealed.
Her family history definitely explained her closed-mouthed-about-her-feelings, lost-for-words personality.
If you like books, bookshops, wonderful characters, a bit of mystery, and secrets kept, THE LOST FOR WORDS BOOKSHOP is for you.
I’m sure most readers fall into most of those categories, so you won’t want to miss reading this charming, alluring read.
The cover itself draws you in.
There are some heartaches in it, but for the most part it is a lovely, bookish read.
ENJOY when you read this book. 5/5
This book was given to me free of charge by the publisher in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own.

An Uplifting Read
I have been reading articles about Up Lit and books that fall into that category of uplifting, but not sugary sweet. The Lost for Words Bookshop fits into that mold. First, as a reviewer on Book Browse notes, what's not to love about a story set in a bookstore! Loveland's story is tragic and yet she comes out of a terrible situation and builds a life of her own. Over time, she learns about developing warm, loving relationships with a number of people. I thoroughly enjoyed The Lost for Words Bookshop!
