I'm gradually adding books I've read in 2021 to give a true reflection of the books I've read since keeping records. This was the first book I read in 2021, and is what kick-started my reading journey having put reading on the back burner whilst bringing up the children, previously being an avid reader. I loved this book and learnt a lot about the women who were the travelling library in the depression in Kentuky. A great read, which is full of interesting characters who you invest in. Fab stuff
Graphic: Violence, Domestic abuse, Racism, Alcoholism, and Animal death
Moderate: Incest

I've absolutely lovely listening to this book on Audiobook. What a heart warming story of the struggles of life in a poorer time.
The love of friendship and relationships, how people react differently to various of lifes obstacles. I saw myself in a couple of the characters and I absolutely loved it.
Would recommend this book to anyone.
