I was delighted by my first reading of a Katie Fforde book. Love Letters follows shy, insular Laura through a major change in her life. Her employer decides to close the book store where she works forcing her to leave the comfort of being surrounded by shelf after shelf of books. Fortunately, she finds new opportunities to use her extensive literary knowledge including the starting of a literary festival in the English countryside. She gets roped into convincing a reclusive Irish author to come and headline the big event. Of course, the reclusive author is a handsome Irishman who helps her overcome her shyness…and a few other obstacles in her life. This was a quick, light read full of humor and British/Irish slang (which was quite a learning experience!).
