Book Charmer, Volume 1
Book Charmer, Volume 1 | Karen Hawkins
1 post | 1 read
Prepare to fall under the spell of "this sometimes whimsical, often insightful, always absorbing story" (Shelf Awareness) following two fiercely independent women and their truly magical friendship in a sleepy Southern town, from New York Times bestselling author of Karen Hawkins. Sarah Dove is no ordinary bookworm. To her, books live, breathe, and sometimes even speak. As the librarian in her quaint Southern town of Dove Pond, her gift helps place every book in the hands of the perfect reader. Recently, however, the books have been whispering about something out of the ordinary: the arrival of a displaced city girl named Grace Wheeler. If the books are right, Grace could be the savior Dove Pond desperately needs. The problem is, Grace wants little to do with the town or its quirky residents--Sarah chief among them. But with a bit of urging, and the help of an especially wise book, will Grace ultimately embrace the challenge to rescue her charmed new community? "A mesmerizing fusion of the mystical and the everyday" (Susan Andersen, New York Times bestselling author), The Book Charmer is a heartwarming story about the magic of books that feels more than a little magical itself.

Mehso-so

I didn't realize this was the first book in a series. It was a sweet story and well done, but I wanted more about this book charmer and less about the town. I understand it's part of a larger thing, but I wanted to read more about these perfectly chosen books for other characters. I mean, it's the title of the book!
I'm sure the rest of the series will be good, but this book left me wanting a bit more. #TheBookCharmer #DovePond #KarenHawkins
