Susan Wiggs wrote The Lost and Found Bookshop. The story is set in California. Natalie Harper works for a wine company in Sonoma valley. She grew up in San Francisco. She lived with her mother and grandfather above a bookshop. When her mother unexpectantly dies, Natalie moves back to the bookshop to care for her grandfather who has dementia. She learns that the bookshop is in dire straits financially. Despite her grief at loosing her mother, Natalie manages the bookshop while helping her grandfather. Together Natalie and her grandfather dig into the history of the building. The history of the was very interesting to me. Although the story about Natalie's family was the focus of the book, the author brought in historical facts about San Francisco.
