A Filipino-American book nerd attempts to save her precious library from closure with the help of a mysterious vanishing book and a boy she should never fall for.


*****

Elsy, a Filipino-American book nerd, faces a crisis when their town's growing reliance on artificial intelligence technology threatens her beloved Littleton Public Library with permanent closure. With only a month in hand, she takes the initiative to reignite the community's love for reading, or else she loses her sanctuary forever. She then discovers a guide on how to captivate hearts, a book that mysteriously disappears and reappears in the townsfolk's hands, causing peculiar effects as if the library has secret plans of its own.

As she continues her campaign and navigates conflicting beliefs between technology and tradition, she finds an unexpected ally in Finn, a boy her bestie likes. Their budding friendship complicates things as they try to discover the miracle of falling in love... with books.

A story of passion, diversity, and a little bit of magic.

Until she meets Oliver Verit, the charming and bookish owner of the island. Alison finds herself falling for him despite her plans.

Guided by the cat who's been following her around, and her dead aunt's sidekick Gladys Jones, Minta begins by fixing problems with bullies, and finding Prince Charming for her b.f.f. Who'd of thought there were so many Cinderella's in need of makeovers? It's not long before Minta wants change her own romantic fortunes too (it's worked for everyone else). But life is never that simple and as Minta grapples with her future, there are others trying to stop her from having one. But who and why? Minta hasn't a clue. Though she does have her suspicions about the cat... Eventually, sacrificing her own (and very human) desires to follow her path, Minta's destiny becomes clear; this is a story of self-belief and resolution, first crushes & love (and the journey towards grasping the difference).
