This book spans one year, from 2019-2020 and addresses all the things that happened in such a short time that still resonate today. Watching the pandemic unfold on the page, the feeling of unrest after the murder of George Floyd, and also a ghost in a bookstore whose haunting is growing increasing more violent, it hit a lot of feels. I was enthralled with Tookie and her journey with in relation with books and her life. I really enjoyed this book and highly recommend it.
