From the moment Kit and Sunny meet, each is inexplicably drawn to the other for reasons neither completely understands. Then fifteen-year-old Sunny is caught attempting to steal a dictionary from a local bookstore and is sentenced to a summer of community service at the library. Her life is peaceful now, and she’s intent on keeping it that way. In fact, Kit’s pretty certain no one knows about the scandal that drove her to walk away from everyone and everything she once held dear, and that’s just the way she likes it. She is able to help book-lovers find just the right books and doesn’t have to fend off countless questions about the life she lived before moving to Riverton. She’s the town’s head librarian, a job she views as pretty close to perfect. Kit loves living in the sleepy town of Riverton, New Hampshire. As you might have guessed, I’m an avid reader, and I love when authors center their stories around a love of reading. Sue Halpern’s Summer Hours at the Robbers Library caught my attention initially because of its title, and then, once I read the synopsis, I knew it was a book I absolutely had to read and review.
