Read October 2021 - Well Read Book Club
This was an interesting book, albeit a bit slow in places. Some in the book club thought it was a bit boring but I found it utterly charming. I loved the history of all the libraries, librarians, and random tidbits of book information thrown in. Of course, I come from a family who would stop at libraries while traveling. :) The author weaves all these historical tidbits in alongside a mystery surrounding the 1986 fire at the Los Angeles Public Library. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who has a love of books - you will learn a lot and might even create a new list of libraries you might like to visit in the process. :)
