The Giver of Stars: A Novel by JoJo Moyes
Fiction suggested by Patti
From Patti “very strong female character” “historical fiction about the women’s packhorse library service in backwoods Kentucky in the 1940s (part of the Public Works Program).”
From Amazon – Based on a true story, these heroic women refuse to be cowed by men or by convention … they’re committed to their job: bringing books to people who have never had any, arming them with facts that will change their lives.
