About this item

"A lovely and lively tale of second chances, following one's dreams, and books. Bickers deals with sensitive topics with a deft and delicate hand...Highly recommended." - BOOKLIST starred review. A USA TODAY BESTSELLERA LibraryReads pick!An Indie Next pick!. A story of second chances and new beginnings, this is a love letter to books - and a love letter to life. Still reeling from a recent tragedy, Erin Connolly knows she needs to start living, but has no idea how. When she accidentally donates her favorite book - a heavily annotated copy of To Kill a Mockingbird containing a memento she can't be without - to a local little community library, she's devastated. But then the book turns up a week later, back in the library with fresh notes in the margins, along with an invitation in a copy of Great Expectations to meet her newfound pen pal.
