Many thanks to NetGalley, Park Row Books, and Phaedra Patrick for the opportunity to read and review her latest novel. I'm a huge fan (you have read The Curious Charms of Arthur Pepper, right?) - so I loved falling back into another book by this author.
Martha has lived her life helping others - she gave up her chance at happiness with boyfriend, Joe, to stay home and take care of her ailing parents. She keeps a book where she compiles all the "to-do" items she has to do for other people because she can't say no to them. She works at the library but can't get hired full time. Then a book appears at the library door for her - inscribed to her from her grandmother. Investigating the origins of this book take her on a journey of self-discovery that you must experience.
Full of little stories from this special book from her grandmother (think Aesop's Fables), plus so many lovingly quirky characters, plus a book about libraries and books! - definitely a highly recommended read! 5 glowing stars yet again for this author!
