I loved the heart wrenching story of the couple who was writing notes in the margins and would have loved to see that in better detail. Otherwise a cute and predictable read.

A story full of emotions: love, disappointment, grief, heartache, comedy. Multi characters tied together through books found in public library that have writing in margins between two lovers. This author knows how to write old curmudgeons. Adored her book The Lonely Hearts Bookclub- this one has some similar characters but different story line.
