The Giver of Stars by JoJo Moyes-390 pages
A wonderful fictional account of a factual group of women who delivered books sponsored by the WPA in the 1930's. Quite a cast of characters who hold their own in all kinds of situations. Strong bonds of love and friendship are what keeps the packhorse librarians going. I had a difficult time getting in to it, but once I did I could not wait to see how the author wrapped up all the different story lines. A very enjoyable read that gives you insight into how people lived in the mountains of Kentucky after the depression.
