The Reading List explores themes of human connection, mental illness, bibliophilia, and the importance of libraries.
I got this book from a thrift store a while ago. I rarely buy books I've never heard of before, but this sounded interesting so I decided to pick it up. I'm really glad I did, because I liked it a lot! It didn't hook me in right away, I'm glad I kept on reading because it eventually picked up and I was entertained all the way through to the end!
I loved the premise and the characters. This makes me want to write a reading list of my own, and also to spend more time at the library.
If you like A Man Called Ove by Fredrik Backman and Before the Coffee Gets Cold by Toshikazu Kawaguchi, you will probably like this, it has similar vibes.
