Summer Hours at the Robbers Library

Literary comfort food.

This had such a promising start, but ended unevenly. For example, the ex-financier character who's supposed to be thawing out the protagonist never seems fully there, and we wonder why she'd warm to him, while the more minor character of Sunny's father is fully fleshed out. But many who frequent libraries and find them restful, or even healing, may like this multilayered story just fine.
