While You Were Reading

Words are messy. Love is messier.

Meet Beatrix Babbage, a 29-year-old dog-earer of books and accidental destroyer of weddings. After ruining her best friend's big day, Bea relocates to the other side of the country in search of a fresh start. But after a few months, life is more stagnant than ever. Bea's job is dead-end. Her romantic life is non-existent, and her only friends are in her books. Then Bea stumbles across a second-hand novel inscribed with notes. Besotted with the poetic inscriptions, Bea is determined to find the author . . . and finds herself entangled in one hell of a love quadrangle.

Funny, poignant and insightful, While You Were Reading is a love story for book lovers that celebrates much more than romance
