This book speaks to the book lovers heart. Robin and Peter build their relationship on a set of classics. Then everything changes. Years later, the classics reappear. I really enjoyed this one.

my legs are peeling ... I have to go to work at midnight ... But my son has friends to play with & I have a new book to read. Erin Bartels has already captured me in the first chapter.
Felt a little long winded in places but it all comes together and each part essential in the larger story. Our pasts, present, hopes and dreams all make us who we are. I loved the weaving together of books and how then affect our lives in the most intimate of ways. ♡
Though Robin Windsor feels safe in her quaint used bookstore in River City, Michigan, it is only a matter of time before her past finds her. She begins receiving books from a long-ago friend, and her past and her present intertwine for a story of sweet friendship, family secrets, and the powerful effect of words.
An emotional, thought-provoking read. The characters bring the struggle, the drama, the mystery to life, and it is so well done.
It‘s clear that the author of this book has a deep love for books.Robin has to move in with her grandmother after her parents go to prison,and books seem to be the only constant in her life. The story is told in 2 timelines,Robin as a 15 year old who arrives in Sussex, MI shortly after her parents arrest and Robin as an adult who owns a bookstore in nearby River City.Despite a pretty depressing story, the ending actually lands on a positive note.
Of course, I just bought this on Saturday. You can still get a deal!

After receiving an eerily familiar book in the mail on the morning of her Fathers scheduled execution Robin is thrown back to the long-lost summer she met Peter Flynt, the perfect boy who ruined everything. That book a first edition of The Catcher in the Rye is soon followed by other books she and Peter shared nearly twenty years ago. One book arrives in the mail each day. But why would Peter be making contact after all these years?
A book about books. A love letter to the power of reading books and poetry with lines like:
“The spine crackles and the sweet perfume of time drifts up to my nose.”
“A little Austen and a splash of Fitzgerald - a blend that starts smooth and bubbly, but with a fatalistic finish. A straight shot of Hemingway to help me face down the angry bull in the arena.”

Robin is sent to live with her grandmother. Meets Peter. His mother recently died. Peter begins to read his mother's books and then shares them with Robin. I love reading books about books. Told in two different timelines entitled Then and Now. Writing is beautiful and flows easily. Characters are believable and the plot engrossing. I would like to thank LibraryThing Early Reviewers and The Baker Publishing Group. Recommended for book lovers!
This might just be the best paragraph I have ever read. Ever! I know it's in regards to a bookshop, and selling books to people, but I can really relate to this feeling working in the library as well. 😍💕📚 Guys, this book is SO INCREDIBLE!
I started this one this morning before work. It hooked me immediately! I absolutely love it so far! 💕📚
Books, books, books, and one bookworm. Well, quite a few bookworms and one from Robin's past.
Robin was sweet and will pull you into her life, her situation, and her love of books.
THE WORDS BETWEEN US will resound with book lovers simply because of that gorgeous cover, the title, and of course the story line.

“Robin Windsor has spent most of her life under an assumed name, running from her family's ignominious past. She thought she'd finally found sanctuary in her rather unremarkable used bookstore just up the street from the marina in River City, Michigan. But the store is struggling and the past is hot on her heels.”
A book for book lovers. We can pretty much guarantee you'll love this one! Releasing September 3.

I thoroughly enjoyed The Words Between Us by Erin Bartels and recommend it to readers who enjoy contemporary fiction that mixes romance, difficult issues, and fascination with books. Five stars!

Snagged this picture from a friend on Facebook who is reading an ARC of it - just realized it will be available on my birthday. How cool is that?
I LOVE this cover. But I have to wait until September to read Erin's 2nd novel. I'm so glad I got to meet her at Baker Book House earlier this year.
