I loved all the beautiful romances throughout the story, and the ways that each relationship developed. Together Margery and Alice discover what it means to truly fight for the life you want to live, and how far the bonds of friendship can sustain us. The story primarily revolves around Alice, a British women brought to Kentucky by her new husband who quickly discovers the marriage to not be all she thought it would be and Margery, a bit of an outcast from town, but the feisty leader of the Packhorse Librarians, and a women not afraid to live by her own rules. I loved the lengths with which they would go to deliver books to their community, and the incredible life-changing impact that we all know that books have. I was immediately drawn into the beautiful descriptions of the Kentucky mountains, and by each unique character fighting to break free of the traditional expectations set upon women and create a life for themselves. As you can probably tell, I LOVED this story. The women are all vastly different, but the way they come together to protect each other and serve their community is incredible.
