You can tell a lot about a person from the library books they borrow

Library assistant June knows a lot about the regulars at Chalcot Library, yet they know very little about her. When her mum - the beloved local librarian - passed away eight years ago, June stepped into her shoes. But despite their shared love of books, shy June has never felt she can live up to the village's memory of her mum. Instead, she's retreated into herself and her memories, surviving on Chinese takeaways-for-one and rereading their favourite books at home.

When the library is threatened with closure, a ragtag band of eccentric locals establish the Friends of Chalcot Library campaign. There's gentlemanly pensioner Stanley, who visits the library for the computers and the crosswords, cantankerous Mrs B, who is yet to find a book she approves of, and teenager Chantal, who just wants a quiet place to study away from home. But can they compel reclusive June to join their cause?

If June wants to save the library, she finally has to make some changes to her life: opening up her heart to friendship, opportunities and maybe even more . . . Friendship Genre Fiction Kadın Kurgu Kurgu Literary Fiction Samimi

Likes that she didnt expect anything for herself since her mother had died and kept on living in the same way, caring about all the others who used the library.

As a one time library assistant this was perfect escape for me. One did want to shake our heroine from time to time. She gets to shine.

It’s been a while since I have been able to visit my library and this story made me want to go back so much. One for the enjoyment and choices of books but also to make sure it isn’t earmarked for closure! A really enjoyable, easy read.

This book didn’t leave me wanting to hear through to the end although I did stick with it. The story was very predictable and narration too sweet for my taste.

Not one for my library.
