About This Book:
The Lost Bookshop: The most charming and uplifting novel for 2025 and the perfect gift for book lovers! Voted #1 book club book for 2025. In this book, a lost bookshop casts its spell over three strangers, transporting them to a world of wonder and secrets in this enchanting novel.
The Echo of Old Books meets The Lost Apothecary in this evocative and charming novel full of mystery and secrets.
‘The thing about books,’ she said ‘is that they help you to imagine a life bigger and better than you could ever dream of.’
On a quiet street in Dublin, a lost bookshop is waiting to be found…
For too long, Opaline, Martha and Henry have been the side characters in their own lives.
But when a vanishing bookshop casts its spell, these three unsuspecting strangers will discover that their own stories are every bit as extraordinary as the ones found in the pages of their beloved books.
And by unlocking the secrets of the shelves, they find themselves transported to a world of wonder… where nothing is as it seems.

How To Get a Copy:
You can get a copy on your own (library, purchase, Libby, etc.) But I also have some books on hold at the Grayslake Library, 100 Library Lane, Grayslake, IL. They will be available about five weeks before the date of this book club.
- Bring your library card (from any library) and go to the checkout area.
- Tell them you are there to pick up a book for Lit Happens Book Club.
- They will register your card with Grayslake if your library is not part of their consortium and they will check out the book to you.
- There will only be limited copies available, so do not wait until the last minute.
Restaurant:
We will meet in their back room. They will provide us with separate checks so either have dinner or, at the least, appetizer or desert.
