I loved this women's
fiction debut novel by Freya Sampson June is a character that is easy to relate
to. And not since reading Matilda as a kid have a related to a book worm
in the pages of a book as I did with Lucy. Though I do think a big
part because like June I am too a library assistant who lost her mother as
well. Though the book starts off a little sad it quickly picks up as you
meet a whole cast of quirky characters. Characters that you would indeed find
in a real-life library. Each of the patrons of the library in the book
are the types of people real librarians' and library assistant’s encounter on a
daily bases.
I finished the book in the course of two days because I wanted to
find out what happened with June, the library patrons and the library.
The ending was bittersweet but to me the ending was perfect for the book. The
Last Chance Library was awesome debut novel and look forward to future books
from the author.
I received a copy of this book from the publisher through
netgalley. I was not required to write a positive review. All opinions
expressed are mine alone.
