A review by ktxx22
The Book Woman of Troublesome Creek by Kim Michele Richardson

3.0

I read this as part of a virtual book club. Things I liked... the history of the pack horse librarians, and the new to me discovery of the Blue people of Kentucky. My husband is from the hills of Kentucky and he didn’t even know about them! That was a fun time looking them up and doing some research. Unfortunately, while I enjoyed our main character, I did not really care for this book I think the author took a bunch of convenient liberties with the story and I think the ending is just trying way too hard to be sad so much so that it comes off as sad for the sake of sadness and I don’t go in for that. I also think the romance in this is unrealistic and underdeveloped. I gave it 3/5. I think it has an audience but I am not it.
