I recently finished reading The In-Between Bookstore by Edward Underhill, and it was so incredible! I was instantly drawn to the characters and story, so I'm looking for books with a similar sort of vibe and lovable characters.
I loved how cozy the book was, and the light magical realism of the MC being taken back in time through a bookstore to be able to speak with his younger self.
The mystery and reveal of the reason behind the falling out between the MC and his childhood best friend was entertaining a fun to read (even though I'm not a big fan of miscommunication.)
What I especially loved was the realistic ending instead of a magical happily-ever-after. It was still a lovely, hopeful ending, even though it wasnt perfect which I really appreciated.
I'm fine with suggestions of any genre and age rating!
