It’s hard to convey what a charming, affecting, uplifting and entertaining read it is. REVIEWED BY LINDA HILL If ever there was joy in book form it’s The Library by Bella Osborne. A Spring Surprise For The Cornish Midwife - Jo Bar.Subscribe to our magazine for more great content.A Wedding at Hedgehog Hollow - Jessica Redland.No Ex Before Marriage - Portia MacIntosh.I didn’t want to put it down, and once I got to the end it stayed with me long after turning that last page.Ī charming, heartfelt story that I will recommend to all.įor more from Bella please follow her on Twitter : Bella Osborne / Twitter They are trying to save the community library but through doing so they are also saving themselves. When a common cause unites members of the community you quickly see how bonds grow and how those bonds can affect a person in many ways. Their bond and connection started so small, with a simple act but grew into something life changing.
They have been carefully written, relationships have been delicately nurtured so to engage the reader, such as the relationship between Tom and Maggie. Whilst still written with her undoubtable skill and sensitivity, she uses this story to tackle more serious, hard hitting topics.Ī wonderful cast of characters, of different backgrounds, ages etc but they are all flawed and with their own issues. With a move away from her normal type of work, Bella hasn’t given us the light hearted romance than fans know and love. The Library by (the always lovely) Bella Osborne is truly something very special. What more can I say other than I LOVED it?! My absolutely favourite read of 2021. Together they discover some things are worth fighting for. They each set out to prove that the library isn't just about books – it's the heart of their community.
As Maggie helps Tom to stand up for himself, Tom helps Maggie realise the mistakes of her past don't have to define her future. When Tom comes to her rescue a friendship develops that could change her life. Maggie is a pensioner and has been happily alone for ten years, at least that's what she tells herself. Tom unwittingly ends up with a bagful of romance novels and comes under the suspicion of Maggie. After a row with his dad, and facing an unhappy future at the dog food factory, he escapes to the library. Tom is a teenager and blends into the background of life. Thrown together to save their local library.
