She then flipped open a trunk and started pilfering inside.
Now it was my turn to start pilfering in the trunks.
...surprised when GramBea pilfered through the attic yet again to...
When i came across the first pilfer in the book, i thought it was a genuine mistake so i mostly ignored it. But after the second, then third pilfer, i think it's safe to say the author has no fucking clue what that word means. And it was used so liberally and so confidently that i had to pull up my dictionary to make sure I've not been using it wrong this past years. Thankfully, this error did not overshadow the story and i was able to follow it well enough.
You know what ruined what could have been an enjoyable book for me? Our female MC, Finley. She was obnoxious and judgmental AF! She caught her husband with her personal trainer so she divorces him and ends up in Green Valley with her grams and her pals. Only, instead of minding her business and doing her thing, miss nosey aka miss goody-too-shoes was busy judging everything and everyone.
During his interactions with the patrons, he always acted like a perfect gentleman. Yet there was still something aloof about him. Something i couldn't quite put my finger on. No one was that good looking and nice. I came to the conclusion he was harboring some kind of secret.
Just because our male MC, Zeke, was doing his job and minding his business, Finley concluded that he must be hiding some big bad secret. Seriouslyyyyyyy. After this, she even tries to recruit Thuy to gossip about Zeke, but Thuy put her in check. Another time she even assumes he grew up in a reservation because he's Native American. I don't even have the time or energy to list her faults because they were many.
I mostly speed read the book just so i could be done with this character. The entire series was disappointing. I didn't even finish the third book before hopping on this one. The female MCs, with the exception of the first book, just had a lot of issues and were really annoying.

Another wonderful edition to the Green Valley Library Series set in the Pennyverse – and it’s all about finding new lease in life; especially after your life implodes in ways you couldn’t have ever imagined!
Finley, our wonderful protagonist thought her life was on a good steady pace, a good job, a husband with plans to expand their family soon – not exciting all the time; but one that she was hopefully content with. Until she is blindsided with a revelation; that leads her to flee to her GramBea’s house in a small town of Green Valley, Tennessee.
Now she lives with four senior ladies, who all are hell bent upon trying to get her back into the saddle, so to speak and she has a chance to fulfill her dream of working in with historical archives in the town’s library and maybe, just maybe end up writing a historical book as well.
What she didn’t expect was to meet that tall, dark and the very mysterious handsome tech support of the library just weeks after her marriage imploded.
Zeke, our tall dark and attractive stranger, has his own agenda to be in Green Valley and is in town for a short, short time.
There is an instant geeky connection between Finley and Zeke – which made this novella all the more sweet and adorkable. The more time she spends with Zeke, the more she realises that when you find someone as wonderful and as caring Zeke; the timing of that meeting honestly doesn’t matter.
Add in Finley’s opinionated, nosy roommates, you have some very hilarious and riotous scenes that are the perfect balance to the sweet romance developing between our lovely protagonists’ - all of this has made sure that Shelf Awareness for a very interesting and enjoyable read!
