The Giver of Stars

Shortlisted for the British Book Awards Fiction Book of the Year 2020

A Reese Witherspoon book club pick

The greatest love story is the one you least expect...

Alice Wright doesn't love her new American husband.

Nor her domineering father-in-law or the judgmental townsfolk of Baileyville, Kentucky.

Stifled and misunderstood, she yearns for escape and finds it in defiant Margery O'Hare and the sisterhood bringing books to the isolated and vulnerable.

But when her father-in-law and the town turn against them, Alice fears the freedom, friendship and the new love she's found will be lost . . .
