The Memory of Borrowed Books
About the Book
A sweeping, magical ode to community and the stories we leave behind, The Memory of Borrowed Books follows one librarian who discovers a hidden room of unfinished memories—and must find the one that can save her beloved library from closing forever. Perfect for fans of Evie Woods and How to Read a Book.
An ode to the power of community and hope, The Memory of Borrowed Books is a sweeping story about what's at stake when the places we love—and the memories they hold—are threatened. A reminder that what we fight to preserve just might be the very thing that saves us in return.
