They’re a group of friends who are completely comfortable around each other to be themselves, even if others would call them odd.Įd is a great narrator. They’re some of the few contemporaries where I can really see myself in these characters who love books and that’s brought them together into a close knit group. I’m not a big reader of contemporary generally (it’s mid-May at the time of writing this and I’m at 85% SFF, horror, and dystopia), but I adore this series. Can Ed let his guard down for the love of books? If Ed can find a way to be himself, he might find making new friends and keeping old ones comes more naturally, and even get to know himself a little better in the process. He decides to distract himself by being the best bookseller Woolf and Wilde has ever seen, but will it be at the cost of his Paper & Hearts Society friendships? Then Ed discovers that his mum is dating for the first time since splitting up with his dad. He just hadn’t bargained on his new colleague, Hannah, seeing through his façade. So Ed does what Ed does best – smiles enthusiastically, fist pumps the air, and pretends that everything is totally under control. He’s just landed his dream job at beautiful independent bookshop, Woolf and Wilde, but he soon discovers being a bookseller is a very different game to being a customer – the hours of shelving books, logging ISBNs and dealing with customers is overwhelming.
