The Quiet Librarian by Allen Eskens
5.0
informative sad tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes

An amazing and beautifully written story of the bravery of a 17-year-old girl during the Bosnian/Serbian War and how 30 years later, while living in Minnesota, she draws on her past strength to avenge the death of her one and only friend and to protect the life of her friend’s 8-year-old grandson. Hana, the quiet librarian is anything but quiet and timid when her life is shattered, and she is forced to relive her tragic past.
