Summary
I was perfectly content with my life—that is, until the pages of my story were ripped out before I had a chance to live happily ever after.

Alice Grace Ripley lives in a dream world, her nose stuck in a book. But the happily-ever-after life she's planned on suddenly falls apart when her boyfriend breaks up with her, accusing her of living in a world of fiction instead of the real one. To top it off, Alice loses her beloved library job because of cutbacks due to the Great Depression.

Longing to run from small-town gossip, Alice flees to the mountains of eastern Kentucky to deliver five boxes of donated books to the tiny coal-mining town of Acorn, a place with no running water, no electricity, and where the librarians ride ornery horses up steep mountain passes to deliver books. When Alice is forced to stay in Acorn far longer than she planned, she discovers that real-life adventure, mystery—and especially romance—may be far better than her humble dreams could have imagined.

Not a well written book for a reader of good historical fiction. However it ended up being a fun and good read, it's kind of a book for a 21 yr old. Easy to read but the main character is way too melodramatic but I enjoyed it as a light read.

Best book I've read in a long while. Touched my heart in many ways. A must read for someone who may be living with confliction in their heart or mind.

This book was almost like historical chick-list. The main character made me laugh--not in a super-funny way but in a situational funny way. Even at halfway thru the book I didn't know where it was going. It was sweet and fun. A good listen!
