The Book Woman Of Troublesome Creek (collector's Edition)

*The Book Woman of Troublesome Creek (Collector’s Edition)* by Kim Michelle Richardson is a richly atmospheric work of historical fiction that celebrates the power of reading, community and quiet bravery. Set in 1930s Appalachia, it’s the kind of story that sweeps you up with its rugged setting, big-hearted characters and steady hope.

Cussy Mary Carter rides the hills of Kentucky as a packhorse librarian for the WPA’s Pack Horse Library Project, delivering books to families who’ve had little else to rely on. But Cussy is also marked as different—her skin is blue—and that difference makes her a target in a town quick to judge. As she strives to do her job and protect the people she cares about, she’s forced to navigate prejudice, suspicion and the hard choices of survival.

Perfect for readers who love bookish historical novels, Appalachian stories, and book club fiction with heart.

Add this collector’s edition to your shelves and let Cussy’s journey carry you somewhere unforgettable.
