Easy reading. Moves along well.
I loved the explanations about the hills of Kentucky and realized that my sister could have been one of the helpers if she had lived during that time.
Each character is described so well. I can relate to this story since I also love reading -- and writing.
My Book Club read this book and all of us agreed that we enjoyed the book.Read full review

More Romance Than History. Easy to Read
The book was in very good condition and received in a timely manner.I read it because of the book club I’m in. Was it compelling - not really. Reading about one daughter with a tenuous marital relationship, another daughter struggling with issues developed around the desire for independence versus love, and the cold disposition of their mother weren’t really my idea of historical fiction. When the story finally turned to the mother’s background, it did become more interesting. I’d recommend it for someone who likes romantic, “historical” fiction.Read full review

A Good Historical Novel
The plot moved at quite a pace. I read it in about 7 hours. The main characters were well developed. The setting is a mining area in Depression era Kentucky. It was interesting to learn about a WPA program that I had not heard of.Read full review

I loved the almost poetic way that the routes the librarians road were described. Reading this book was like a motion picture in words.

Read it-great story!
Wonderful story! I had no idea there was a book mobile by horse in rural areas-great writing about strong women in a male dominated period and place.
