I was gifted this book by my manager at work, and I’m so glad he shared it with me. Theo of Golden follows a mysterious, kind hearted older man from Portugal who arrives in Golden, Georgia. After visiting a local coffee shop and being moved by the portraits displayed there, he decides to buy all of them, with the heartfelt intention of finding and gifting them to their rightful owners.
This book was such a pleasant surprise for me. I’ve never read anything quite like it. It’s a beautifully written story about kindness, generosity, friendship, and love. Though it’s slow paced, it kept me wanting to know more. The characters are warm and very memorable, I laughed out loud at moments, and while I didn’t cry, I definitely got emotional.
It’s an inspiring read with gentle Christian themes that might not be for everyone, but I found it thoughtful and moving. The ending caught me completely off guard in the best way. This book will tug at your heart and stay with you long after you’ve finished.
