It was perfectly enjoyable and I didn't want to put it down, but the plot was meh and the attraction felt very forced... Like when they say "I'd never be into him" but spend the next 3 sentences swooning, it's like why lie to me right now?! 💁‍♀️😆

It dragged a bit for me but definitely hit me in the feels because right up to her death, my mother spent her life volunteering at the local library. We spent hours there together, and her love for the library, books, and reading are what makes me feel closest to her.
