This month, Bookhawks of Walnut Creek suggest The Giver of Stars by Jojo Moyes. Bookhawks rated The Giver of Stars 8.1 out of a possible rate of 10. They describe the book as “an enjoyable read about the WPA (Works Progress Administration) project which saw Kentucky Packhorse Librarians bring not only literacy to rural areas in Appalachia but much more. Eleanor Roosevelt’s project gave women a purpose, money and self-confidence. This work of historical fiction reveals the hard lives, injustices, the have and have nots, the entitlements of the male species and the perseverance of strong women.”
