What are we putting villain on? This bet on river just feels like a bluff, I'm thinking villain has probably missed a draw? Does he think I was drawing from just calling 2 small-ish bets?

fold river, hand looks fine.

This bet on river just feels like an overbet shove for pure value

name one draw that exists on that flop?

You're gonna see JJ+ nearly every time here.

I doubt Villain 3-bets QJ pre-flop, but micro-stakes villains 3-bet % is almost always unbalanced. They do it way too much or way too little. Most of them are afraid of 3-betting worse than QQ, but plenty will 3-bet JJ.

Without reads, you should classify calling river shoves on paired boards without at least a straight as spew.

Oftentimes, the straight is bad, too... if Villain raises OTR with a paired board... they're saying, "Your trips are no good."

Sorry, should have been clearer. Cbet could quite easily be with air and he has picked up a FD on turn or thinks that I have floated the flop and picked up a FD on turn instead.

That is probably one of the biggest leaks in my game. I tend to think villains are bluffing when they shove...surely if they had a good hand they would bet a decent amount to get maximum value?

When you make assumptions that opponents play the way you think they should, you do so at your own risk. It's 2NL. At this level, it's not automatically correct to assume that every unknown understands the concept of value betting. And even those who do have a clue can still decide to shove for value at times, thinking they'll get fewer calls but larger wins.
