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.

Comment author: Claude EzzellComment text: Paul was one of the most manifest men I have ever met. He was a good friends with my Dad and always had an entertaining story for the occasion. One of my most favorite stories Paul told dated back to the late 60s or early 70s and it revolved around him killing a deer way out in the mountains. Naturally the deer ran down into a deep canyon and died. Knowing that it would take him forever to haul it out he devised an awesome plan. After preparing the deer he drove back to NAS Fallon and rustled up a SAR crew and they flew out and picked up the deer. Of course it was labeled as a training flight but what the hell in those days you could do that sort of thing. Rest in Peace my friend until we meet again!!Comment publication date: 4/11/24, 1:15 PMComment source: Obituary - LCDR Paul N PflimlinComment author: THughesComment text: So sad to hear.

I remember her fondly from the days of my youth at Northside Elementary, many years ago. She and Mrs. Rowe were my favorite office ladies! I am so sorry to hear of her passing.
