About this listen

A librarian’s discovery of a mysterious book sparks the journey of a lifetime in the delightful new novel from the best-selling author of The Curious Charms of Arthur Pepper.

Librarian Martha Storm has always found it easier to connect with books than people - though not for lack of trying. She keeps careful lists of how to help others in her superhero-themed notebook. And yet, sometimes it feels like she’s invisible.

All of that changes when a book of fairy tales arrives on her doorstep. Inside, Martha finds a dedication written to her by her best friend - her grandmother Zelda - who died under mysterious circumstances years earlier. When Martha discovers a clue within the book that her grandmother may still be alive, she becomes determined to discover the truth. As she delves deeper into Zelda’s past, she unwittingly reveals a family secret that will change her life forever.

Filled with Phaedra Patrick’s signature charm and vivid characters, The Library of Lost and Found is a heartwarming reminder that even the quietest life has the potential to be extraordinary.

Perfect for fans of 59 Memory Lane, The Keeper of Lost Things and Something to Live For.

excellent story

I would recommend this book to anybody who wants a nice easy and uncomplicated book to read, I read it before going to sleep at night and when I wanted to relax without having to listen too hard. The storyline was interesting, unchallenging and in some places predictable. I did enjoy it so I would recommend.

A touching story. Dreadful narration. The speech pattern is really strange as if it is being read by a robot . It sounds like your Sat nav is reading to you.

struggled to get into it but glad I finished it!
I found the performance of the narrator a struggle at times due to lack of emotion.

Good story

It could be a decent story but oh my goodness, the monotone narration that never changes no matter what happens. I kept missing huge chunks as her voice had no inflection, no emotion, no interest and consequently her voice drifted past like some kind of background noise. What a shame as I like this author’s work.

Soporific narrator

I got cross a couple of times listening I thought, to another story about a silly woman who martyred herself for other people, which I find so irritating. Luckily I perservered and fell in love with this story and it's flawed but amazing characters. I truly loved listening to this book with its gentle and mesmerising narration. I cannot read anything myself at the moment due to a very recent eye operation and have so enjoyed discovering Kindle Audible books. I have greedily already purchased my next book by this author this time with a male main character and hoping to find it equally as good.

A lovely book full of love and hope.
