The best book I have read in a while, couldn't put it down

RELEASE NOTES:

On the bookshelves

Picked up at today's BookCrossing meet at Costa Coffee.

A mystery begins when ten-year-old Daniel Sempere discovers a book by unknown author Julian Carax on his first visit to the Cemetery of Forgotten Books in Barcelona. Over the years Daniel investigates the book's author and the man who is trying to destroy all the remaining copies of his books, and finds that his own life is following the same path as the author's.

I enjoyed following the twists and turns of the mystery, especially since I have visited Barcelona myself, but towards the end of the book I felt that it became a touch too melodramatic for my tastes.

RELEASE NOTES:

To be released at this afternoon's BookCrossing gathering.

To be read - a work colleague has had a copy of this book on her desk for a few weeks and it has intregued me so I was glad to see it at the BC Birmingham meetup last Saturday. This is in my TBR pile and I will journal when read.

Now available in the Official BookCrossing Zone at Hudsons Coffee House, Colmore Row. The books are on a tall, thin set of shelves to the left of the arch into the back section of the coffee house.
