But when she gets there, it’s not everything she expected. She falls in love with Bennett Van Cleve when he comes to visit, and she’s happy to escape her family home, marry him, and follow him to Kentucky. Alice was always something of a nuisance to her family in England. The book takes place in depression-era Kentucky. I was more than willing to give a second book by Moyes a try. I’ve only read one other book by JoJo Moyes, Me Before You, and I enjoyed it more than I had expected. The blurb said something about the friendship of women and library books, and that was enough for me. The Giver of Stars (2019) was just sitting on the shelf looking all shiny and new, and I couldn’t resist. Once again, I was sucked in by my library’s “Lucky Day” books. ![]()
