Why read it?

I read Sarah Jioâs latest novel, With Love from London, during the height of the covid lockdown, but it truly felt like I had transported from my NYC apartment to the charming streets of Londonâs Primrose Hill.
Alternating between dual timelines, we follow the story of a woman inheriting her estranged motherâs bookstore, punctuated by flashbacks with what inspired her mother to open the bookstore in the first place.
It is a story of love, family, destiny, and the duty we have not only to ourselves but also to each other. Filled with book-lover flair and London quirks, Jio paintsâŚ
From Becky's list on inspiring your next getaway.
