Reseña: DONT MISS THE STANDALONE NEW NOVEL FROM JOJO MOYES THE NO. 1 BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF ME BEFORE YOU AFTER YOU AND STILL ME A wonderful novel. The Giver of Stars is the most sweeping dramatic richly evocative book full of brilliantly feisty women Sophie Kinsella Alice had come halfway across the world to find that yet again she was considered wanting. Well she thought if that was what everyone thought she might as well live up to it. England late 1930s and Alice Wright - restless stifled - makes an impulsive decision to marry wealthy American Bennett Van Cleve and leave her home and family behind. But stuffy disapproving Baileyville Kentucky where her husband favours work over his wife and is dominated by his overbearing father is not the adventure - or the escape - that she hoped for. That is until she meets Margery OHare a troublesome woman - and daughter of a notorious felon - the town wishes to forget. Margerys on a mission to spread the wonder of books and reading to the poor and lost - and she needs Alices help. Trekking alone under big open skies through wild mountain forests Alice Margery and their fellow sisters of the trail discover freedom friendship - and a life to call their own. But when Baileyville turns against them will their belief in one another - and the power of the written word - be enough to save them?
