From a Kindle customer: "Oh my gosh! An entertaining, lol, hopeful book with a real plot, complex characters that doesn't veer away from the harsh circumstances of poverty (financial and emotional) but that also doesn't beat you over the head with it and doesn't crusade with it. I want to be Jess when I grow up someday and I'm 53 what a great book."

From Marisa Sauco on Goodreads: "Al principio me sentí un poco perdida, porque no lograba relacionar la sinopsis con lo que estaba leyendo. Pero cuando comprendí de qué se trataba todo fui incapaz de soltar el libro. 

Una historia preciosa, que sorprende por sus giros, con una MARAVILLOSA construcción de personajes (Isabel, mi favorita) y con un final original e inesperado. 

Un placer leer a Jojo Moyes."

The Giver of Stars by Jojo Moyes

The Giver of Stars by Jojo Moyes, 388 p.

"Alice Wright marries handsome American Bennett Van Cleve hoping to escape her stifling life in England. But small-town Kentucky quickly proves equally claustrophobic, especially living alongside her overbearing father-in-law. So when a call goes out for a team of women to deliver books as part of Eleanor Roosevelt’s new traveling library, Alice signs on enthusiastically.
    The leader, and soon Alice’s greatest ally, is Margery, a smart-talking, self-sufficient woman who’s never asked a man’s permission for anything. They will be joined by three other singular women who become known as the Packhorse Librarians of Kentucky.
    What happens to them–and to the men they love–becomes an unforgettable drama of loyalty, justice, humanity and passion. These heroic women refuse to be cowed by men or by convention. And though they face all kinds of dangers in a landscape that is at times breathtakingly beautiful, at others brutal, they’re committed to their job: bringing books to people who have never had any, arming them with facts that will change their lives.
    Based on a true story rooted in America’s past, The Giver of Stars is unparalleled in its scope and epic in its storytelling. Funny, heartbreaking, enthralling, it is destined to become a modern classic–a richly rewarding novel of women’s friendship, of true love, and of what happens when we reach beyond our grasp for the great beyond."--Amazon

I really loved this book. It's the first book I've read by this acclaimed author, and it was beautifully written and engaging. The characters were all dynamic and the storyline was funny, sad, and heartfelt.

I wanted to read this book when I saw the upcoming trailer for the movie coming out in June.  Me Before You is a very touching story about a young woman, Louisa Clark, who finds herself unemployed and needing to find a job to help support her family.  Louisa decides to take on a most challenging position when she becomes caregiver for Will Traynor.  Will was an active young man until he was hit by a motorbike and lost the use of his arms and legs.  Will has pretty much given up on life until he meets Louisa, who gives him new found adventures that may give Will hope to live.  The ending may shock you, but won't leave you dry eyed.
