The Reading List made me laugh out loud, cry, and still have hope about the future.
Mukesh, a recent widower trying to find his place in the world and Aleshia, an angsty teen dealing with a stressful home life, come together over books at the local library as a mysterious book list makes its way through the local community.
While the mystery of who wrote the list is somewhat predictable, it will still warm your heart. This book forced me to put my cynicism aside and open my heart.
