The grandest bookshop in the world

A thrilling, magical, mysterious book based in the Cole family, who had a book emporium in Victorian Melbourne. I ❤️❤️ this book!!!!!!!

When Pearl and Vally Cole find out that their Pa had risked their famous book arcade for a copy of their dead sister, Ruby, to a strange man who calls himself the Obscurosmith, the Coles have to win it back by playing a game with seven deadly challenges they have 28 hours (…or less) to complete them in.

really good fantasy read. Great story line and fantastic character development.

This book is about two siblings named Pearl and Valentine Cole. They live in a bookshop. Not just any bookshop. Cole's Book Arcade. Pearl and Valentine need to complete seven challenges by the stroke of midnight otherwise they will lose their Pa - but not just that, they will forget that he and the Arcade ever existed. I really liked this book. It was good because it took you on a rollercoaster ride - it had ups, then downs, then ups, then downs but it finished on an up. I recommend this book for ages 6+.
