Review: The Lonely Hearts Book Club by Lucy Gilmore

A Golden Doodle and a Miniature Poodle are lying on a bed with a softcover book in front of the Doodle. The book is The Lonely Hearts Book Club by Lucy Gilmore.


The Lonely Hearts Book ClubLucy Gilmore's THE LONELY HEARTS BOOK CLUB is a delightful and charming novel that will leave you feeling uplifted and inspired. The story follows Sloane Parker, a small-town librarian who forms an unlikely friendship with a grumpy old man named Arthur McLachlan. When Arthur falls ill, Sloane creates a book club to bring more joy and companionship into his life. As the club grows, they discover the power of books to connect and heal, and they form a bond that transcends age, gender, and background. The writing is warm and engaging, and the characters are lovable and relatable. I am a sap for multigenerational stories. This book is a touching and hopeful story about the transformative power of friendship and the magic of books. I particularly enjoy the use of the book Anne of Green Gables to communicate their feelings with one of the characters. Highly recommended!
