I'm now glad I didn't quit the book, since after the first half it was getting very deep and emotional, surprisingly.
The book made me cry for various reasons.
All in all I really enjoyed that book and it's one of my favourites now! :)

I loved the characters in this book deeply and appreciated that the side characters got fleshed out, starting as caricatures of people you might see in a library and becoming important and valuable to the library by the end. I also appreciated that

I had so much fun getting to know library assistant June Jones and the visitors of Chalcot Library. Each of the characters were so distinguishable and the varied personalities really brought them to life. I also liked the running theme of grief and the affect it had upon June. I’d read that some found her character a little pathetic, however I loved her transformation.
A quick read with lovely spirit. I’ll definitely read more from this author.
