‘HER BEST Book YET’ THE DAYS, Audiobook of the Week
THE SPELLBINDING SUNDAY Occasions BESTSELLER FROM THE WRITER OF Me personally BEFORE YOU
The greatest love story is the one you least expect .
Alice is stifled, bored, and misunderstood.
Therefore when she matches wealthy and handsome American, Bennett Truck Cleve, she is quickly swept away her feet.
Marrying him and moving to America seems like a great experience – but life like a newlywed in stuffy Baileyville, Kentucky, isn’t at about The Giver of Stars: Fall in love with the enchanting Sunday Instances bestseller from the author of Me Before You all what she hoped for.
Until, that is, she responds to a call for volunteers to start a travelling library, surprising herself by saying yes, before her hubby can say zero . . .
Led by feisty and rebellious Margery O’Hare, this unlikely band of women travel far and wide on their mission to bring books and reading to the ones that require it, and Alice finally finds the freedom, friendship and love that she’s been searching for.
But not everyone approves of what they are doing, specifically her new father-in-law. So when the town transforms against them, will their belief in one another and their function be enough?
The Giver of Superstars is a mesmerising tale of female friendship, romance, and the wonder of books and reading, inspired by a remarkable true story.
