The Book of Beginnings by S. Page, published by Harper Collins UK, is a beautiful piece of literature. I lready read and loved very much the previous book, The Keeper of Secrets and couldn't wait to get my hands on this next novel. And I was so not disappointed.
Jo is looking after her uncle's shop while hiding from her past. She loves hearing her customer's stories told between pens and staionary paper.
One day she meets Ruth, hiding from her own past and Malcolm, n up and coming writer in his seventies.
These three form a beautiful friendship. A touching story, literally unputdownable. A read cover to cover in one sitting book that gives all the feels.

I liked this heart warming story of human behaviour with believable, endearing characters. It is set in a stationery shop in London with stories of friendship revolving around heartbroken Jo and her customers and neighbours. I am also a big fan of the titled chapter headings.
I thought it a good holiday read which I didn't want to end.
