Evie and the Pack-Horse Librarians

By Laurel Beckley
Evie and the Pack-Horse Librarians by Laurel Beckley digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

As an assistant editor at the prestigious Hanhat Publishers, Evie Southiel is entrusted with fine-tuning the manuscripts of the company's most important authors. Her skills as a book witch allow her to manipulate the stories she reviews and bring them to life.

 

When her girlfriend steals the secret manuscript of Hanhat's best-selling author and leaks it to the press, Evie is exiled to become a journey carrier with the Pack-Horse Librarians in the eastern mountains.

 

Timid city mouse Evie doesn't know the first thing about surviving in the wilderness, riding a horse, or dealing with the rugged mountain folk and coal miners surrounding the town of Hevis. She does know books, though, and she's determined to do the best job she can. But that goal is jeopardized when her horse gets spooked on her first solo run, sending her tumbling out of the saddle and into a mysterious woman's life.

“Thank you to @netgalley and @NineStar Press for a copy of Evie and the Pack-Horse librarians in exchange for an honest review. Evie Southiel, the protagonist of this story, finds her life being directed down a new path when her girlfriend leaks a manuscript to the press and untimely gets her fired. In turn, Evie gets sent to a new job where she finds herself delivering books. This plot line was very similar to Giver of Stars for me, and I felt myself thinking that a bit too often. I enjoyed the world that this book was set in, and the special gift that Evie has, but I truly wish more time was dedicated to those two components. Evie’s gift could have added even more dimension to this novel if the time was taken to explore it more. The relationships in the book, although very sweet, felt rushed and forced in a way that had me annoyed they even happened. I’m huge on character development, and I felt they could have been fleshed out more. Overall, it’s a quick read that wasn’t unenjoyable to read, but there were too many areas in which the novel felt surface level. 2.5”
