Review: Clever idea but one-dimensional characters

I picked up this book free during an Amazon giveaway. When pharmaceutical rep Lewis inherits his uncle's bookstore in tiny Eureka, California, he and his super-materialistic wife Emily go to look at it and are astounded at its profitability in the post-paper-books world. But how long before they discover that its earnings have nothing to do with books?I could not get into this book at all. The characters are so one-dimensional and uninteresting that the clever plotline is wasted. I gave up a third of the way through.
