On the TBR shelf...

I picked this up at a library sale thinking it would be good for swapping or bookcrossing. Well, the time has come...Had to make room for 2 that I picked from the Never Been Boxed book box. I haven't read it but it looks pretty good. Hope someone enjoys!

From trekwoman's never been boxed book box. Title sounded so familiar, so I checked and checked...nope - don't think I've ever read it before!

trekwoman's bookbox; Ave Maria - a 35yo spinster in town & daughter of an Italian immigrant, and running Mulligan's pharmacy, her late father's enterprise figures she will never marry. Eccentric town folk, and a letter from her mother that reveals she's not who she thinks. Two marriage proposals later, she's running for Italy to find out more about her mother's family, before she can figure out where she belongs in the scheme of things. Lots of folksy dialect and small town stories to keep the book moving along.

This will move along in the "T" author bookbox.

Millions of readers around the world have fallen in love with the small town of Big Stone Gap, nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, and the story of its self-proclaimed spinster, Ave Maria Mulligan. In the series’ enchanting debut, Ave Maria reaches her thirty-fifth year and resigns herself to the single life, filling her days with hard work, fun friends, and good books. Then, one fateful day, Ave Maria’s past opens wide with the revelation of a long-buried secret that will alter the course of her life. Before she knows it, Ave Maria is fielding marriage proposals, trying to claim her rightful inheritance, and planning the trip of a lifetime to Italy—one that will change her view of the world and her own place in it forever. Full of wit and wonder, hilarity and heart, Big Stone Gap is a gem of a book, and one that you will share with friends and family for years to come.
