Gabrielle Zevin is the author of eight novels, including Elsewhere and, most recently, The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry, which is a New York Times bestseller.
"Who the hell are you?" A.J. asks the baby.
For no apparent reason, she stops crying and smiles at him. "Maya," she answers.
That was easy, A.J. thinks. "How old are you?" he asks.
Maya holds up two fingers.
"You're two?"
Maya smiles again and holds up her arms to him."
A.J. Fikry, the grumpy owner of Island Books, is going through a hard time: his bookshop is failing, he has lost his beloved wife, and a prized rare first edition has been stolen.
But one day A.J. finds two-year-old Maya sitting on the bookshop floor, with a note attached to her asking the owner to look after her. His life - and Maya's - is changed forever.

一些曲折回还,温馨感动
评分结尾的部分很感人 每章的标题都是一个短篇小说的名字 读到最后才明白它们的意义
评分A easy and pleasant read. Loved all the literary references, introducing me several writers and fictions. A little bit cliche, but touching and heart-warming. Would be suitable for sensitive person and book-lovers I guess.
