The Little French Village of Book Lovers

byNina George, Simon Pare (Translator)
In a small town in balmy Provence, Marie-Jeanne has a gift. She can see the marks Love has left on the people around her. Glowing faces, hands that shimmer brighter when enclosed in another. Before long, she is playing matchmaker.

When Marie-Jeanne's foster father, Francis, sets up a mobile library travelling the many mountain towns of the Nyons region, she takes her quest further. Their library offers entertainment, guidance, reassurance and comfort - but for Marie-Jeanne, the books also allow her to bring soulmates together.

The only person she can't seem to find a partner for is herself. Everyone must have a soulmate. Will Marie-Jeanne be able to recognise hers when Love finally comes her way?
What a joy to read The Little French Village of Book Lovers, which will delight Nina George’s millions of readers. Exquisitely written, as always, she draws you in from the first page and immerses you in the lives of her delightful characters. You won’t want to put it down.
