What Readers Are Saying

"I loved this book! The writing and the plot were so captivating that I probably would have read the whole thing in a single sitting if I could have. And Fern 😍... What a great character." Farrah, Goodreads
"I loved Fern's quirkiness, innocence and good heart and I fell in love with her friend Wally. I loved the library setting and Fern's job as a librarian, as well as her love of books and reading." JanB, Goodreads
"I was oddly captivated by this story. I wouldn't consider it to be a Thriller, but I'm not sure what else to call it? An eerie character study? Regardless, I found it to be interesting as heck." megs_bookrack ((struggling to catch up)), Goodreads
