Publisher's Summary

Six-time Christy Award winner Lynn Austin has won a loyal following for her inspiring historical fiction. In Wonderland Creek, young Chicago-area librarian Alice Grace Ripley is left heartbroken when her fiancé breaks up with her just as the Great Depression forces her out of a job. To escape the local gossip, Alice volunteers to deliver donated books to a library in rural Kentucky. There she discovers that God still has a plan for her after all.

Naive youth to mature woman

This is a lovely story of a girl coming to realise what life is all about. I loved the truth spoken through this story.

Talk about the wild Wild West!

All of the characters have deep personalities that will blow you away. The story is cleverly weaved together and good life lessons learnt.

Lyn Austin is my favourite author

The beginning of this book was boring to me I wondered if I would finish it.So glad I did continue as it became very meaningful and exiting with knowledge of an important part of History .Lyn Austin did not disappoint me.The narration by Kate Forbes made it even more enjoyable.Thank you Audible for this book

Love this book, lots of laughs

Added to my favourites. Full of adventures and juxtaposition of two worlds. The writer has a special talent to draw you in so that you want to keep reading. This novel was quite funny and I enjoyed chuckling along with the protagonist as she navigated her life. Miss Lily was enchanting. Listen to it.
