Why read it?

1 author picked It's Not Even Past as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

I cheered every time the woman made a friend or solved a murder and ached for her every time she had to abandon one new life for the next one to stay safe. I loved how the bookish librarian grew into a woman of action with the strength to protect herself and make hard choices.
