Book Reviews -- The Bookshop of Second Chances: A Novel by Jackie Fraser

Book Reviews -- The Bookshop of Second Chances: A Novel by Jackie Fraser

Thea’s pleasant life takes a turn when her husband of nearly 20 years leaves her for one of her friends at the same time she is let go from her job. She is adrift and out of sorts. Then she learns a distant relative has left her his house and large book collection in Scotland. She heads north thinking she’ll sell it all but soon discovers this new place might be just what she needs to heal, move forward, and find happiness once again. A fun summer read. Available in print at the Library and on an ebook on Overdrive/Libby at the website.

Carol is the Director of the Churchill County Library. She likes to read about booksellers because she was one before she was a librarian.

They strung them along for years until they had no financial choice but to accept and get out. My Dad even hauled water for the Snow ranch trying to stay afloat. May God bless you all. I truly pray it works out for you.Comment publication date: 3/28/26, 9:22 PMComment source: Local Rancher Says Navy Land Expansion is Devastating His Family RanchComment author: Lynn JohnsonComment text: I remember your mother well; she was a lovely and kind woman. I loved hanging out at your home on Sheckler Road where she was always warm and welcoming.Comment publication date: 3/27/26, 7:12 PMComment source: June Irene Manhire (Pendarvis), née DriggsComment author: EvaComment text: Grandpa, I find myself wondering about you every so often. I see glimpses of your face in the years worn onto my dad. It makes me feel more connected to you in some way. I remember the familiar kindness from you that I know in my dad. I would’ve really liked to have a good conversation. I only have a handful of memories with you, but you were loving, and you were kind. I wish I was able to say more. If I am someone to you, I hope I make you proud. Thank you Aunt for this sweet post.Comment publication date: 3/27/26, 12:11 AMComment source: Obituary -- Randolph Floris Banovich C Comment author: RBCComment text: The Navy should reimburse the market cost of replacing the grazing land they are taking.
