All Booked UP by Melody Carlson

 All Booked UP by Melody Carlson is a delightful story with Riva Owen who wants to keep her home that has an amazing library and has been in her family for many generations. She decides to rent her home to four women who need a place to live due to the challenges of their lives. What could possibly go wrong?

I found All Booked Up a charming story. The author weaves in books, some romance, and reminds us that everyone has a story. I appreciated the cozy feel of this book and its positive outlook on women and aging. Watching Riva continue to embrace life, share her love of books with others, and save her beautiful home was truly inspiring.

I highly recommend All Booked Up by Melody Carlson. The engaging characters, book references, and cozy feel made this a wonderful read. There is nothing quite like mixing up a variety of people in one house and stepping back and watching the action. The story did not disappoint.

I was gifted a copy and not required to write a positive review.
