- Genre: Contemporary literature / Feel-good novel
- Atmosphere: Warm and human, with equal doses of humor and emotion.
Avril doesn't want to become like those heroines in novels who run away after the disaster. The reality, however, is that she has been unemployed for weeks, has nowhere to stay, and struggles to breathe; thus, when her grandmother suggests that she seek refuge in the village of her childhood, she does not hesitate to accept despite the quirky terms – among them, the obligation to breathe new life into the reading club of the peculiar residents of Trevijes.
When she arrives there, Avril tries to escape from herself with the help of books, but fate has other plans. She will soon be forced to cohabitate with Alex, a young man with a mysterious past who fascinates the neighbors but unsettles her, and it seems he intends to turn her life upside down.
Monica Gutierrez this time takes us on a journey to a small village in the Pyrenees and shows us that no matter how strong and independent we believe we are, we all need the help of others to succeed.
In the book you will encounter:
- The search for a new beginning after professional and personal collapse.
- The power of books to heal.
- The importance of human relationships and solidarity.
