Summary:
"When
Maggie
Banks
arrives in Bell River to run her best friend's struggling bookstore, she expects to sell bestsellers to her small-town clientele. But running a bookstore in a town with a famously bookish history isn't easy. Bell River's literary society insists on keeping the bookstore stuck in the past, and
Maggie
is
banned
from selling anything written this century. So, when a series of mishaps suddenly tip the bookstore toward ruin,
Maggie
will have to get creative to keep the shop afloat. And in
Maggie
's world, book rules are made to be broken. To help save the store,
Maggie
starts an underground book club, running a series of events celebrating the books readers actually love. But keeping the club quiet, selling forbidden books, and dodging the literary society is nearly impossible. Especially when
Maggie
unearths a town secret that could upend everything.
Maggie
will have to decide what's more important: the books that formed a small town's history, or the stories poised to change it all"--Provided by publisher.
