A woman’s young husband dies and he leaves her a gift of one hand-picked book per month from the local independent bookstore. This is an engaging and basic romance novel which has at its core the idea that books can change lives. It goes pretty much exactly where you think it’s going to go. It’s nice, it’s bookish, the characters are likable and I did not at all mind being in this world for a while, even though romances are not usually my thing.
