Librarian Martha Storm has always found it easier to connect with books than people--though not for lack of trying. She keeps careful lists of how to help others in her superhero-themed notebook. And yet, sometimes it feels like she's invisible. All of that changes when a book of fairy tales arrives on her doorstep. Inside, Martha finds a dedication written to her by her best friend--her grandmother Zelda--who died under mysterious circumstances years earlier. When Martha discovers a clue within the book that her grandmother may still be alive, she becomes determined to discover the truth. As she delves deeper into Zelda's past, she unwittingly reveals a family secret that will change her life forever. Filled with Phaedra Patrick's signature charm and vivid characters, The Library of Lost and Found is a heartwarming and poignant tale of how one woman must take control of her destiny to write her own happy ending.

This is a charming book and might be a good light read for an all female book club
Nicely woven submitted by gem on August 31, 2019, 10:19pm Intricate story of relationships and secrets and how they shape lives. A good read. Watch out...the story will draw you in and lead you to places you never thought it would.
Okay submitted by Princess Cimorene on August 8, 2021, 7:48pm I thought this would be a cute, light read, but the way all the other characters treat the protagonist is appalling. That made it a bit difficult to slog through for me.
Another light mystery from Phaedra Patrick submitted by JennJenn on July 21, 2022, 2:54pm I am finding that I like this author's style. She does portray challenges and secrets within familial relationships but works things out with a penchant to seek to maintain or rebuild hard relationships rather than just walking away.
