It's the story of Kit and Thea. Kit is a former heroin user who nearly died at the library where Thea is the Branch Manager. Kit returns to the library because that is where her NA meetings are going on. They meet (again) and eventually (after some misunderstandings) start getting closer. But, they have a lot to overcome. Both their pasts are filled with speed bumps.
It was a fun read and very intense one too. Because a lot of the general problems of this library are the problems (at various levels) of almost all libraries these days.
More authors need to write stories like this about libraries with as much care as Thoma did (and the rest of the media need to stop being like the Marvel Universe, or the Oreo corporation, and destroying libraries because they think it's funny. It's not. We're this place that is catching (or trying our best to catch) all the people that those humongous corporations and the politicians that get money from those corporations do not seem to care one iota about.
I was given this ARC by Netgalley on behalf of Bold Strokes Books.
