#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER | A REESE'S BOOK CLUB PICK

"A great narrative about personal strength and really captures how books bring communities together." —Reese Witherspoon

From the author of the forthcoming "Someone Else’s Shoes" comes a breathtaking tale set in Depression-era America, following the remarkable journey of five extraordinary women through the mountains of Kentucky and beyond.

Alice Wright, seeking escape from her stifling life in England, marries American Bennett Van Cleve. However, small-town Kentucky proves equally confining, particularly living alongside her domineering father-in-law. When Eleanor Roosevelt’s traveling library initiative calls for a team of women to deliver books, Alice eagerly signs up.

Led by the sharp-witted Margery, the Packhorse Librarians of Kentucky are born. Alongside three other remarkable women, they embark on a journey that becomes an unforgettable drama of loyalty, justice, and passion. These heroic women defy convention and danger, committed to their mission of bringing books and knowledge to those in need.

Based on a true story, "The Giver of Stars" is a sweeping epic that captures the essence of women’s friendship, true love, and the quest for a better tomorrow. With its blend of humor, heartbreak, and enthralling storytelling, it promises to be a modern classic—a testament to the power of perseverance and the transformative nature of literature.
