The Book Charmer by Karen Hawkins is a 2019 Gallery Books publication.
Offbeat and Amusing! This fanciful romance is a lovely gift for book lovers!
Dove Pond librarian, Sarah Dove, has a special knack for picking out just the right book for her patrons. When Grace Wheeler moves to Dove Pond, it is only on a temporary basis. Sarah, though, is convinced Grace is the person who will save Dove Pond from financial ruin. Sarah is determined to make a Grace a permanent resident.
Grace proves to be a little more stubborn than Sarah bargained for, though...
I’ve read a few of Karen Hawkins’ delightful historical romance novels over the years, but I must say, I think Hawkins has one-upped herself with this one!
This is an adorable small -town romance, occasionally poignant and bittersweet, with just a splash of magic realism. The special books in Sarah's library are characters themselves and this element will especially enchant book lovers!
Overall, wonderful feel-good kind of story anyone can enjoy!!
