3.19.2016 - The Curious Charms of Arthur Pepper

The Curious Charms of Arthur Pepper by Phaedra Patrick

Thanks so much to NetGalley and the publisher for the opportunity to read this sweet, heartwarming story!

Arthur is a 69-year-old man trying to recover from his wife's unexpected death. He hides in his house and is semi-estranged from his children. On the anniversary of her death, he decides to go through her closet and things to send to a favorite charity. Tucked in a boot, he finds a box containing a charm bracelet he's never seen before.

He decides to investigate and each of the charms lead to a discovery about his wife. Although the discovery really ends up being more about himself.

Just a sweet story and may be helpful to someone recovering from a loss and definitely for fans of A Man Called Ove.
