Get cozy, sip a cup of something and begin to read The Forget-Me-Not Library the latest book by the magical, wonderful Heather Webber. The story, uplifting and comforting, tells the tale of a town, if you are honored to be drawn there, who will know exactly what you are looking for, even if you don’t have a clue. Along the way, you will meet very special people who will become your friends and whom you will cherish forever.
Julie Nightingale is a school nurse from Alabama who has decided to take a road trip to try and figure out her life. Lost in so many ways especially about her grandfather who recently was tragically killed and whom she feels responsible for being unable to help him is searching…for what? she has no clue. So, when her car breaks down suddenly in a small town called Forget Me Not, she just wants to get her car fixed and move on. But the town has other ideas.
Julie meets Tallulah Byrd Mayfield and her children. Tallulah works at the Forget Me Not Library. Recently divorced, she and her two very young children now live with her grandfather. She is trying her best to keep everything together, work a full-time job, and take care of her family.
As Julie waits for the part for her car to come in, she and Tallulah begin to get close as Julie watches her children, takes them to the library and even begins to volunteer. Julie also begins to learn all about the mysterious Forget Me Not town. She starts to meet some of the very eccentric townspeople and well, starts to actually feel as if she is healing. How can that be?
But that’s the magic of The Forget Me Not town and yes, there is a lure that their Library and who resides there is “special” as well.
Is it truly possible that a town can heal heartbreak? And fear? And panic?
Well, in the end, it’s truly the people who open their arms and embrace those who need love and care to try and make them whole again, but there truly is something which draws the lost to the town in order to have them find exactly what they are looking for, and even more. For some, they will never leave while others will get what they need and move on.
The Forget-Me-Not Library is an enjoyable, wonderful feel-good read with so much heart and soul and love and mystery.
