Not only did I love this book, I am in love with it. The whole story has made me so madly in love with George:by the way, I'm 86 years old, which is the age of George at the time Jeremy Mercer went to live at Shakespeare and Co. I just love the story around the main character, rooting for him all the time, sad when he was sad and happy when he falls in with friends that he enjoyed being around.
