For fans of Jane Green and Loretta Nyhan, a heartwarming debut novel about a daydreamer who gives her town, and herself, an amazing gift: a lending library in her sunroom.
When the Chatsworth library closes indefinitely, Dodie Fairisle loses her sanctuary. How is a small-town art teacher supposed to cope without the never-ending life advice and enjoyment that books give her? Well, when sheβs as resourceful and generous as Dodie, she turns her sunroom into her very own little lending library.
At first just a hobby, this lit loversβ haven opens up her world in incredible ways. She knows books are powerful, and soon enough they help her forge friendships between her zany neighborsβand attract an exciting new romance.

Finding herself at a crossroads, Dodie must figure out what it means to live a full, happy life. If only there were a book that could tell her what to doβ¦
