¿Puede una pequeña librería de Londres cambiar una vida? Una historia para todos aquellos que han sentido alguna vez que la literatura les salvaba. Agnes Martí es una joven arqueóloga que se muda a Londres en busca de una oportunidad. Poco tiempo después de llegar a la ciudad, sorprendida por una repentina lluvia mientras pasea por el barrio del Temple y se refugia en una librería muy especial: Moonlight Books. Edward Livingstone está buscando una ayudante y, en el tiempo que Agnes tarda en secarse y tomar una taza de té caliente, ambos comprenden que no es casualidad que sea precisamente ella quien ha llamado a su puerta. A medida que pasan los días, Agnes va descubriendo el carácter gruñón de su nuevo jefe, las excentricidades de su clientela habitual y el encanto de esta pequeña librería. Hasta que un día, uno de los libros más preciados de las estanterías de Moonlight Books desaparece y el inspector de policía John Lockwood entra en escena para hacerse cargo de la investigación y revolucionar la tranquila vida de Agnes. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Could a small London bookstore change someone's life? This is a story for those who have ever felt that literature saved them. Agnes Martí is a young archaeologist who moves to London in search of a new opportunity. Shortly after arriving in the city as she strolls through the Temple district, she is surprised by a sudden downpour and takes refuge in a very special bookstore: Moonlight Books. Edward Livingstone is looking for an assistant, and in the time it takes Agnes to dry off and sit down for a cup of hot tea, they both realize that it is no accident that she is the one who walked through the door at that time. As the days go by, Agnes starts to discover her new boss' grumpy nature, the eccentricities of her regular clientele, and the magic of this charming bookstore. Until one day, one of the most treasured books on Moonlight Books' shelves disappears and inspector John Lockwood enters the scene to take over the investigation and shake Agnes' quiet and peaceful life.

I flew through this book (hehe pun!) while travelling to Malmö for Eurovision. It‘s for this month‘s #foodandlit Spain. Written by a spanish author, it tells the story of an archeologist who moves from Barcelona to London to find her luck and ends up in a bookstore. It has a very cozy atmosphere in this rainy London but I guess not much of the story will stick with me.
