This was a sweet listen – a nice story for anyone who loves books and libraries. We see two character's lives intersect: a young (white?) woman in a dysfunctional family and an elderly (Indian? but he says he's from Kenya) widower.
It's a bit predictable, with one somewhat-surprising twisty bad thing, and it's a bit slow for the first half, but I definitely enjoyed following along and hearing the characters talk about book characters I've enjoyed, too.
