What a great quirky character to gift us with in this fun book! Libby is the new J.K. Rowling, albeit a frumpy one. She is also a bit agoraphobic, has a dog as an only friend and is going through writers block due to early onset Alzheimer’s.
The world is begging for a sequel to her last book about the Falling Children. As she writes under a pen name her identity is a secret and the world is trying to hunt her down. She is trying to save her Falling Children but needs help, another writer, a fan. There is a parallel story surrounding her super fan Peanut. A character as quirky was Libby is.
The book switches seemlessy between characters. It reads like YA but tackles serious issues like dementia, ostracism and, phobias head on. Nicely written and very hard to put down. Thank you NetGalley for this advanced copy, these views are my own
