The Red Address Book by Sofia Lundberg

5.0

I am so happy I finished reading this spectacular book in the comfort of my living room and not on the commuter train. This striking story about a 96-year-old woman who decides to write short stories about the people listed in her address book as a memento to her great-niece, made me cry like a baby. On her 10th birthday, Doris receives a red address book from her father. Shortly after, her father dies, and her life is set unto a path which will lead her to new countries, new escapades and many heartaches. She will meet extraordinary people and some not so much. As a young woman in Paris, she meets Allan and it is love at first sight. Allan disappears suddenly, and her heart is broken, but it will not be the last time they will be together.

This is a heartening story of love, loss, making mistakes, atoning oneself, and finding love again.

I want to thank Raincoast Books for the advanced copy of The Read Address Book by Sofia Lundberg. This internationally acclaimed book has been published in 28 territories worldwide. This is a book to put on your TBR list when it comes out on January 8, 2019.
