Hope Between the Pages by Pepper D. BashamMy rating: 💛💛💛💛
Any story that begins with a library is bound to be an excellent tale.
This story pulled me in and didn’t let me go. I loved Sadie from the moment I’ve met her and I wanted to see what happened with her story. The present day story was also good, but I found myself rushing to Sadie’s chapters to see what she went through. It was a long time since I’ve met a character where I was really hoping for a happily ever after for her - you will have to read the book to see what happened.
I'd read of kisses, but nothing prepared me for how the touch of his lips against mine somehow reached my soul.
The author’s way with words added to the beauty of the story. Sadie and Oliver is probably one of my favourite fictional characters to date. Who can not connect with ‘kindred of the same spirit’ when it comes to a love for books and stories.
I looked up into a sky of early autumn azure and offered an impossible prayer, because if hope lived anywhere, it was with the One who wrote the stories in the stars.
Fans of split time novels should grab this one, because you will love it.
