Summary:
"Sloane Parker lives a small, contained life as a librarian in her small, contained town. She never thinks of herself as
lonely
... but still she looks forward to that time every day when old curmudgeon Arthur McLachlan comes to browse the shelves and cheerfully insult her. Their sparring is such a highlight of Sloane's day that when Arthur doesn't show up one morning, she's instantly concerned. And then another day passes, and another. Anxious, Sloane tracks the old man down only to discover him all but bedridden... and desperately struggling to hide how happy he is to see her. Wanting to bring more cheer into Arthur's gloomy life, Sloane creates an impromptu
book
club
. Slowly, the
lonely
misfits of their sleepy town begin to find each other, and in their
book
club
, find the joy of unlikely friendship. Because as it turns out, everyone has a special
book
in their heart-- and a reason to get lost (and eventually found) within the pages."--Provided by publisher.
