The Storied Life of AJ Fikry
A.J. Fikry is a bitter widower settling into drunken middle age when a baby is left in his bookshop.
This is a surprisingly moving story of a man returning to the world from deep depression through the love of a child.
I have to say this book is so much better than the plethora of generic romance novels I’ve ploughed through lately.
Highly recommended if you like contemporary fiction and have a bit of a sentimental streak.
