A review by wildflowerz76
The Library at the Edge of the World by Felicity Hayes-McCoy
3.0
I received this book as a digital ARC from Edelweiss for an honest review.
What I liked: This was a lovely story about a small Irish town and it's inhabitants. The author did a fabulous job making the reader feel like they were living right there along-side Hanna, Conor, Fury, and the rest of the town. I liked seeing Hanna's transformation from curmudgeon to a genuine member of the town.
What I didn't: I got bored at times around the middle. Hanna's crankiness in regards to the library didn't seem to be warranted. Quite a few of the backstories seemed to be added for filler and didn't advance the story in the least. They were also many of the parts that bored me.
Overall, this was a nice read, but it's not going to excite many.
