About this listen
Brought to you by Penguin.
The spellbinding story of love, friendship and the power of words to change the world by the international bestselling author of Me Before You
The greatest love story is the one you least expect . . .
Alice Wright doesn't love her new American husband.
Nor her domineering father-in-law or the judgmental townsfolk of Baileyville, Kentucky.
Stifled and misunderstood, she yearns for escape and finds it in defiant Margery O'Hare and the sisterhood bringing books to the isolated and vulnerable.
But when her father-in-law and the town turn against them, Alice fears the freedom, friendship and new love she's found will be lost . . .
Read by Audie-award winner Julie Whelan.
'Her best novel yet. Julian Whelan [is] the perfect reader' The Times
'Utterly enchanting' Mail on Sunday
'Epic' David Nicholls, bestselling author of One Day

Enjoyable second half
The first third of the book I found a bit slow going. However, by the end I felt connected with the characters and cared about what happened to them. English accent is a bit dodgy!

Loved it.
Love the depth of the characters in Jojo’s books. This is no exception. You become fully immersed in Alice and Marjories lives and I couldn’t wait for the next car journey or quiet house to listen to a bit more. Julia Whelan is an excellent narrator and gives each character a life of its own. Sad to have finished it.

First Jojo Moyes book
I loved this audio book. It transported me to an era, place and landscape that will stay with me.
I loved the story line& loved the characters. My only criticism is that the ending was too neat and perfect for my liking. Julia Whelan did a wonderful narration
