Ellie had a spot of bother finding the place, but some helpful souls pointed her in the right direction. A bookshop. Volumes in the windows enticing aspiring readers in off the pavement. In hindsight, she had been here before, passing by the shop yet never entering. Why would girl who struggled to read her letters need to be in a bookshop?
The bell above the door chimed, not too unfamiliar from the one at her employers house. A distant feminine response.
"Hello? I'm here about the wanted ad, ma'am." Ellie called back "Is the job still available?" she asked.
Ellie took a moment to soak in the atmosphere of the shop. The place was stacked floor to ceiling with volumes in different coloured bindings. If she were a book lover, she would be in heaven.
