The Library at the Edge of the World by Felicity Hayes-McCoy
Did not finish book. Stopped at 45%.
It seems a strange choice to have so many of the main characters be so entirely unlikable. With some rare exceptions, every character brings a particular unpleasantness when they arrive on the page. By chapter 27 I was entirely fed up with Hanna and no longer cared if she found her new life or whatever it was she was looking for.
I also found Hanna's stereotypical Librarian character to be outdated and tedious. Librarians stopped shushing people decades ago, and generally LIKE having people in the library.
However, the descriptions of the towns and landscapes were lovely.
