The Quiet Librarian by Allen Eskens ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💫 My jaw literally dropped during parts of this book. It was not only incredibly well written and researched, but I flew through it and was disappointed every time I had to put it down. The story follows Hana, a Bosnian refugee, who is looking for answers after her best friend was murdered. Hana discovers that she is really the one being hunted - and secrets from her past as the Night Mora, a part of the militia fighters, may come to the surface. A fascinating story about war-torn Bosnia, life in the USA as a refugee with a bounty over their head and how women are transformed by loss and war. The research was incredibly well done - I was able to picture just how horrible lives were. How loss can transform people to search for vengeance - becoming people that they struggle to recognize. Strong, incredible women who experienced an enormous amount of loss. And just how far people will go for the ones they love. A heartbreaking story that is impossible to put down. Thank you Netgalley for my advanced reader copy. LTKHome LTKSeasonal LTKFindsUnder50
