Hanna Casey’s life hasn’t gone as she planned. Feeling betrayed after finding her husband in bed with another woman, she relocates to coastal Ireland and accepts a position at a rural library that involves driving a bookmobile for isolated residents. But when the Finfarran county council threatens to close down the library for budgetary reasons, she finds a new purpose in rallying the community to save it. In this charming novel, Felicity Hayes-McCoy balances soothing descriptions of Ireland’s natural beauty with realistic appraisals of difficult issues to create a story that is at once hopeful and honest. Her often prickly protagonist is refreshingly human, and she’s surrounded with delightful cast of eccentrics.
