I read this in 2 days, so clearly I enjoyed it!

Parts of the story were predictable, but that didn't diminish the charm of Richardson's novel. It beautifully portrayed the power of books, and served as a reminder to take nothing in life for granted. 4/5 ⭐

An intriguing look at the Bluets of the Kentucky hills, and the WPA library project of President Roosevelt‘s New Deal Acts. Though the story is fictional, so many true historical facts are woven into this novel. Cussy Mary is one of the Bluets, and gained a position as a Pack Horse Librarian. This is the story of her struggles both on and off the book route. Racism, miners‘ unions, and pure hate were obstacles faced by these Kentucky people. 4⭐️
