About this listen

A heartwarming literary-themed novel about a woman who turns an ordinary red phone box into the littlest library in England and brings together a struggling town.

A little red telephone box full of stories, a chance to change her life...

Jess Metcalf is perfectly content with her quiet, predictable life. But when her beloved grandmother passes away and she loses her job at the local library, Jess’ life is turned upside down.

Determined to pick up the pieces, Jess decides it’s time for a new beginning. Unable to part with her grandmother’s cherished books, she packs them all up and moves to a tiny cottage in the English countryside. To her surprise, Jess discovers that she’s now the owner of an old red phone box that was left on the property. Missing her job at the local library, Jess decides to give back to her new community—using her grandmother’s collection to turn the ordinary phone box into the littlest library in England.

It’s not long before the books are borrowed and begin to work their literary magic—bringing the villagers together... and managing to draw Jess’ grumpy but handsome neighbor out of his shell.

Maybe it’s finally time for Jess to follow her heart, let go of her old life, and make the village her home? But will she be able to take the leap?

Great story with great characters. After reading this type of story, I would love to think this could actually happen. Move to a new place, start a new life and find love and friends. Possible? Perhaps only in books.

A lovely little book. I really enjoyed reading about a fictional village back home in England. Just typical village life and very likable characters. Very easy listening and just a pleasant story. Just lots of fond memories of home recollected whilst listening to this book. The narrator was excellent, she did lots of different voices for the different characters and had a very pleasant voice to listen to.

Lovely easy listening British story

She had a huge Eeyore complex, understandably. But she forced herself to move beyond. At first only because its what she thought Mimi would have wanted for her but then finally her own wants and vulnerability started to speak louder. loved the reader. loved the characters especially Dianne.

Getting out of her own way

This story was so engrossing that I found myself looking forward to the next time I could listen to it. The narrator was perfect with her smooth tone and character depictions, her voices for each one exactly as I pictured it should be. The story was long but I never felt it drag. A wonderful story and a great way to tell it.

Wonderful book!

This is a love story. It’s the love of community and friends and books and family. It was such a sweet story and made me laugh and cry and cheer for the characters. You fall in love with each character and their quirks. So much fun and a sweet story of community coming together.
