A truly wonderful, kind of magical, book. Very well-written, with a lot of - sometimes subtle, sometimes not so much - British humour. Equally heart-warming as it was tear-inducing.
We all deserve an Andrew in our lives and someone like Sally.
Aside of a wonderful story this books also contains quite a number of awesome book recommendations, many of which are classics but a few are not (yet).
My only gripe with the ebook version is, that the text isn't fully justified and it was a pain in the amygdala to read this. I hope the publisher fixes this eventually.
The poor ebook formatting, and the fact that my migraine ridden head had quite a bad time reading this because of that, leads unfortunately to a 4-star review, although the story itself deserves 5-stars.
Can absolutely recommend - just don't get the ebook at this moment in time.

I was lucky enough to receive a digital copy of The Memory Library from Avon Books and Netgalley for review a few weeks ago and have been working my way through the rest of my books.
This is a beautiful story about the power of books, the lessons life hands us, wether we want them or not, love and family.
I couldn’t stop reading this. This mother daughter story captured my heart and I had to know how it ended. I absolutely recommend adding this to your list. Hitting shelves Feb 1 2024
Ella jumped on a plane and left England 21 years ago and has never looked back. Her life is now in Australia with her husband and daughter. When her mom’s neighbour calls to let her know her mom has been injured and needs her she will shove down a lifetime of resentment to do her duty.
Sally has never stopped missing her daughter. Every year on Ella’s birthday she has bought her a book and inscribed it for her to read when she one day comes home. With her daughter returning to England she hopes to enjoy every precious second she can reconciling with her long lost daughter.
This is a heart warmer and heart breaker. I loved every character, every word and every second I got to spend in this delightful book.
