The Book Woman's Daughter

An instant bestseller in USA Today and the New York Times

The beloved Troublesome book woman's daughter, Honey Mary Angeline Lovett, must fight for her own independence with the aid of the women who mentor her and the books that set her free. Bestselling historical fiction author Kim Michele Richardson is back with the ideal book club read.

Honey Lovett has always understood that the traditional ways can make a difficult existence even more difficult, growing up amid the untamed beauty of the Kentucky highlands. Honey has spent her whole life hiding from the authorities as the daughter of the well-known packhorse librarian from Troublesome Creek, who has a blue complexion. However, Honey finds that she has to battle to remain free or risk being taken away permanently after learning that her father and mother are both imprisoned.

Honey takes over her mother's former packhorse library route and starts delivering books to Appalachian's isolated hollers. Honey wants to show that she can exist without guidance, but the path may be difficult and some people are reluctant to let a woman go her own way. Honey will have to battle for her position and discover along the way that the amazing women who run the hills and hollers can make all the difference in the world if she is to deliver the freedom that books provide to the families who need it most.
