Summary
The must-read novel of family, friendship, and the power of storytelling
It’s never too late to rewrite your story…
Juliet Finch has asked her A-level English students to bring in a novel – one that they will give away. It could a cherished favourite or a tome gathering dust on the shelf. What matters is the joy of gifting a whole world to another person. In return, they can take one from the little free library – a community book-swap box – installed by Juliet’s late husband, Donny.
Juliet has brought one of her many editions of her favourite book, The Time Traveler’s Wife, to exchange. But that night, she realises that she has mistakenly given away the signed first-edition that Donny got her for her fortieth birthday – the one with the loving note in the front, penned just before his death.
Heart racing, Juliet rushes back to retrieve it, adrenaline fuelling her steps. But when she arrives at the little library, she finds a bigger plot twist than she could’ve imagined…
Perfect for fans of Evie Woods, Hazel Prior, and Sally Page, The Library of Lost Dreams is a moving and uplifting novel about community, resilience, and the important lessons that reading gives us.
