The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry

Zevin must have written this book with readers in mind. Big readers. People that tromp to bookstores like they are on a pilgrimage. Folks that zing with the mention of anything book-ish.


This book is for them. It is for me. It is probably for you.


Here's a little of the plot: A curmudgeonish widowed bookstore owner finds a baby in his shop and the baby changes his life.


It's a gentle story, a happy story, a perfect summer read for the book-ish.
