I liked it. Quaint little uplifting story that had some cheerful and hopeful moments that left me feeling uplifted and happy about the kindness thats in the world and in the hearts of others. :-) Also it's a book writing for people who like to read, and it talks about the joys of reading! I agree! :-) I also found it very interesting and entertaining that the entire book was written as letters and correspondances! Here's a few favorite quotes: 
 "That's what I love about reading: one tiny thing will interest you in a book, and that tiny thing will lead you to another book, and another bit there will lead you onto a third book. It's geometrically progressive - all with no end in sight, and for no other reason than sheer enjoyment." 
 "Reading good books ruins you for enjoying bad books." 
 "Isola doesn't approve of small talk and believes in breaking the ice by stomping on it." 
 "His writings have made me his friend."
