A wonderful exploration of the past and the future and, most importantly, of what it means to be present in the here and now. Full of the love of words, the love of family, and the love of falling in love, The Lost and Found Bookshop is a big-hearted gem of a novel that will satisfy and entertain readers from all walks of life. Lovely --Garth Stein, New York Times bestselling author of The Art of Racing In The Rain

In this thought-provoking, wise and emotionally rich novel, New York Times bestselling author Susan Wiggs explores the meaning of happiness, trust, and faith in oneself as she asks the question, If you had to start over, what would you do and who would you be?

There is a book for everything . . .

Somewhere in the vast Library of the Universe, as Natalie thought of it, there was a book that embodied exactly the things she was worrying about.

In the wake of a shocking tragedy, Natalie Harper inherits her mother's charming but financially strapped bookshop in San Francisco. She also becomes caretaker for her ailing grandfather Andrew, her only living relative--not counting her scoundrel father.

But the gruff, deeply kind Andrew has begun displaying signs of decline. Natalie thinks it's best to move him to an assisted living facility to ensure the care he needs. To pay for it, she plans to close the bookstore and sell the derelict but valuable building on historic Perdita Street, which is in need of constant fixing. There's only one problem-Grandpa Andrew owns the building and refuses to sell. Natalie adores her grandfather; she'll do whatever it takes to make his final years happy. Besides, she loves the store and its books provide welcome solace for her overwhelming grief.

After she moves into the small studio apartment above the shop, Natalie carries out her grandfather's request and hires contractor Peach Gallagher to do the necessary and ongoing repairs. His young daughter, Dorothy, also becomes a regular at the store, and she and Natalie begin reading together while Peach works.

To Natalie's surprise, her sorrow begins to dissipate as her life becomes an unexpected journey of new connections, discoveries and revelations, from unearthing artifacts hidden in the bookshop's walls, to discovering the truth about her family, her future, and her own heart.

They actually make my dry mouth worse.
Flavor Name: Peppermint, Size: 100 Count (Pack of 1)
I got the peppermint flavor. It’s very strong and stings, and they make my dry mouth worse. They are chalky and caused me to cough. There are plenty of cheaper and effective ones out there to choose from… that won’t go straight into the trash.

What's to say, a Saint and a Doctor of the church.
Format: Paperback
Content awesome as one would expect from a doctor of the church. Problem, font size of the printed is to small for comfortable reading.

A guide for prayer relevant today
Format: Paperback
Though written in the 16th century, this book is so direct, speaking of the issues of parenting, prayer, and our relationship with God, as if the author were alive today. The examples she gives are so human, and so direct. Do you pray in church, or do you fall into the temptation of looking who is there around you? What other temptations do you give into that take you AWAY from prayer? Do you know how easy it is to falter in prayer? St. Teresa will help you not feel like a failure. There are times you should simply not pray ("no water in the well"), and in those cases, St. Teresa suggests to read a good book. Lots of good books - and hers is a perfect way to start. She is helping me pray, but when I am having a dry spell, she is helping me not fall away from God.

......................COINCIDENCE?…I was on page 130 when my husband
of 43 yrs kissed me good by, walked out the door, fell down -& never got up. His last words to me when I tried to help him up were " I'm ok". The paramedics worked on him for over an hour but never got a pulse. He died less than 5' from me -but, I couldn't even hold his hand. He'd converted to Catholism but, became a Catholic without a church; like me! Why I chose this book is still beyond me......especially of this Saint; we'd been to her shrine, in Spain, yrs ago. I'd found it 'too much'… the relics (a finger) -as I remember it struck me as wrong. On that same trip, we went to Fatima; my husband told me he just knew something special had happened here when we visited the shrine & the small statue of Our Lady of Fatima. I, (the Catholic, raised by devote parents & nuns in school) who really wanted to feel the same -didn't. It is 3wks. since his death. Maybe, I'm just still numb. We were 24/7 for over 43 yrs. (we had a business- then retired & traveled - we had a wonderful life) BUT… How could I live now...without him? And Why? I waited for a 'breakdown'… for his loss to hit me. I felt waves of grief, that were physical -go through me for a few days; but, no great sobbing of tears. The only explanation I have (& I thank God for it) is that I do feel him with me still, in my heart/soul. My daily prayer is that I never feel That loss. (being the cynic that I am, I can not begin to express what this means to me) It is so real a presence & comfort! And, 'for the record', the very first call I made was to the church we weren't going to. (In 'my' day, if you weren't in 'good standing' you didn't get a funeral Mass.) We got a it and were welcomed! My Faith, is still pathetically weak. Father told me to offer my grief as sacrifice. I'm trying.
