Description
In the City Not Unlike Montreal, there was once a young woman who inherited her father’s bookshop and a mysterious, secret Spectacular
Everything you love must leave you
Noon Bonaventure and Munro Forrest weren’t always rivals chasing each other through the pages of books. As children, they grew up listening to stories from Munro’s grandmother and arguing over their favourites. But then they discovered the Spectacular, a mysterious, ever-changing festival glittering with everything lost: forgotten ballets, texts from the Library of Alexandria, and skyfuls of umbrellas. This Spectacular, found only by invitation or in the pages of misprints, is the most precious thing in the world.
Now long estranged yet forever linked adults, Munro, an ambitious museum curator, vows his next exhibit will bring down the Spectacular and return its treasures to their rightful owners. But Noon, now leader of the Spectacular, will do everything to protect it.
As opening night for Munro’s exhibit draws closer, he and Noon will have to stop running and finally agree on how their story ends-and perhaps, find a way to start again.

I loved every moment! — Georgia Summers, bestselling author of THE BOOKSHOP BELOW A beautiful ode to the magic of books and a poignant tale of loss and reconnection — Sarah Beth Durst, bestselling author of THE SPELLSHOP
