This book is different from most of the other Jojo Moyes books I've read. This one is set in the 1930's in the mountains of Kentucky. A group of women with very different backgrounds unite to to form a traveling library. In spite the women's differences, they become friends and support each other during some tough situations while struggling to keep the library open. This book reminded me of the bookmobile that used to come to my neighborhood in the summer when I was a child. I was so excited to go in and choose books.
