A library on the epic, lush west coast out of Ireland. Yes, please! Hanna has returned home to Ireland to live with her mom and raise her teen-age daughter after leaving her philandering husband. Leaving the cosmopolitan environment of London and her dreams to be an art librarian makes Hanna seem unapproachable to the citizens she serves with her library van. When the establishment puts forward a plan that will cause further hardship for many in her service area, Hanna finds herself connecting with a nun from the former convent next to her library and together they energize the surrounding communities to reconnect in a digital world. What I really love about this story is the way Hanna's library/van begin to morph from the old, traditional ways into a more purpose-based library. When the library connects to and with their patrons, everyone benefits. It is also refreshing to see a budding romance avoid insta-love territory. Recommended!
