2023: How the most unexpected friendships are forged in the most unlikely of places
The Book of Beginnings
What you need to know before your trail
Jo Sorsby knows she is hiding from her past when she steps in to look after her uncle’s stationery shop. Glimpsing the lives of her customers between the warm wooden shelves, as they scribble notes with fountain pens and browse colourful notebooks, distracts her from the life she has left behind.
Yet far from home, Jo feels adrift . . .
When she meets Ruth, a vicar running from a secret, and Malcolm, a septuagenarian struggling to write his first book, she realises that she isn’t alone.
It’s the beginning of a friendship that can transform Jo’s life . . . if only she can let them in.
Locations
ResetTravel Guide
Highgate London
The main location of the book is Highgate and the Hampstead area of London. To be honest, the real setting is the stationery shop and the friendships that are formed within. There is a bookshop on the map as you should imagine the shop is somewhere very close by. Buy the book from here – wouldn’t that be lovely!
Take yourself off to Highgate and wonder if you could meet people like those in the book.
