good historical fiction is such a pleasure to read. we get a focused mirror into the past and we get a good story, too. miss morgan's book brigade does that well. the focus is books, of course. it's about libraries, in all shapes and sizes, from the NYPL (new york public library, the library of my childhood) to a shelf and restored ambulance in war torn france during world war one. there are two time lines, one during that war and one during the year 1987, at this iconic library. this book is about love and loss, it's about standing up for what you believe in, and it's about allowing one's heart to open, even after painful and difficult times. this is also about women finding ways to fully contribute and be acknowledged for their hard work. this is not an easy book but it is a truly worthwhile read.
