Our Reasons meet us in the morning and whisper to us at night. Mine is an innocent, unsuspecting, eternally sixty-one-year-old woman named Lorraine Daigle…
Violet Powell, twenty-two, is just out of prison after a drunk-driving crash that killed a beloved kindergarten teacher. Harriet Larson, a retired English teacher who runs the prison book club, is facing a lonely new chapter. And Frank Daigle, a widowed machinist, is still grieving the woman Violet killed.
When all three cross paths one morning in a Portland bookstore, their lives begin to entwine in unexpected and transformative ways.
How to Read a Book is an unsparingly honest and profoundly hopeful story about letting go of guilt, embracing second chances, and the healing power of books.
