The Last Bookstore in America by Amy Stewart Book Summary

Bestselling author and bookstore owner Amy Stewart takes an offbeat and lighthearted look at the future of the book.

After the ebook renders bookstores obsolete, a young couple finds themselves in the unlikely position of owning one of the last bookstores in America. But if it isn't keeping itself afloat selling books, what is it selling? A hilarious glimpse at a future that is almost here.

Nothing is what it seems in the offbeat and out-of-the-way town of Eureka, California. Shrouded in fog and hidden behind a curtain of redwoods, this rundown mill town is home to a peculiar cast of characters, a unique homegrown horticultural industry, and one of the last bookstores in America.

No one is more surprised by the unlikely survival of the Firebreathing Dragon than Lewis Hartman, its newest owner. By the time his uncle Sy died and left the bookstore to Lewis, even the most ardent bibliophiles had abandoned printed books in favor of a charming and highly literate digital device called the Gizmo. Bookstores all over the country had closed their doors. But somehow, the Firebreathing Dragon has kept going.

So how has the Firebreathing Dragon managed to survive the death of the book? And if it isn't keeping itself afloat selling books, what is it selling? Reporters, federal agents, and corporate executives out to salvage their own imperiled industries all converge on the bookstore to uncover its secrets. What they discover is a small town that has fallen under the spell of the Firebreathing Dragon's unique offerings.

In this novella, Amy Stewart explores the strange dynamics of small-town life and the future of that marvelous two thousand year-old communication device, the printed book.

The Last American Bookstore. Charming tale with interesting characters. Give it a try. I really liked it.

Charming. This is a fun little book with good, believable characters and is certainly not predictable. And, I don't get to read many books set in the town of my birth!

The Last Bookstore in America. This is an engaging and original novel by an elegant storyteller! The reader develops personal relationships with the characters, and becomes part of their seaside community, behind the Redwood curtain in Northern California. When the last page is read and the book is closed, there's a twinge of sadness in knowing I won't see them again tomorrow.

Who cares/no heroes here. My iPad copy had missing words in some sentences. I read the whole book, even though I did not like or care about any of the characters. Or their town. The demise of bookstores is sad, but resurrecting them as pot dens is hardly the answer. I felt sad after reading this.
