The Love Song of Miss Queenie Hennessy by Rachel Joyce, 295 pages

My book club, Readers Without Borders, read The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry and we all loved it. When I got a chance to read an advance copy of the sequel, I jumped at the chance but was hesitant because a sequel can so often fall short. This one not only measured up, but may be even better. I had to put the book down a few times because it was just so touching and I had to stop and savor where I was before moving on. The ending left me sad but it was a good and perfect ending.
