The Library of Borrowed Hearts by Lucy Gilmore

4.0

---

Sweet story of found family and lost loves. Dual timeline set in present day and 1960, 24 year old Chloe in present day is guardian of her 3 younger siblings after her mother abandons them and working in a library, discovers a book in which star crossed lovers corresponded in 1960. It soon becomes a literary scavenger hunt as Chloe follows their affair through multiple books, uncovering a mystery that is 60 years old. Solid, relatable characters, heartbreaking lost love, great redemption in the end. Recommend.
