I absolutely loved this book, I was sobbing most of the second half, but no worries, still has a happy ending.
The narration is one if not the best I’ve ever encounter.

I enjoyed this heartfelt historical novel about women who triumphed over their circumstances, although it had a little more romance than I like. I couldn't help but compare it to
The Book Woman of Troublesome Creek, which is also about women working as pack horse librarians in Kentucky in the same time period. I would recommend that one more.

Enjoyed the book and thought it was a fast read. 4 stars because I thought it was a bit predictable and overly dramatic for my taste, but still definitely worth the read.

I received this book almost 5 years ago so didn’t remember what it was about when I finally picked it to read.  I was so excited to find out early on that I would be reading about a traveling library in rural Kentucky!  And with it written by Jojo Moyes, I knew I would enjoy it.  And I did.  The setting is beautiful and the strong female characters are greatly entertaining, to say the least.  The main reason I couldn’t give it a 5 is because the final chapter is a little too sappy with its individual closer for all.  Overall though, it was a great read and I recommend it.

LOVED THIS BOOK. Very well written, JoJo’s words take you right into the story. The characters were well thought out and balanced each other well.
