The Personal Librarian

I thought was really an interesting book and I didn't know Morgan had a library...or really any of this history! It is also such an interesting time period where a lot of different major events happening like the sinking of the titanic, civil rights, lynching, women's right to vote, ... etc.
Belle da Costa Greene was a pretty secretive person and I think this book did her justice. She had to balance and hid her true identity for her entire life and that cost her a lot, despite her success. An important historical figure for sure and even more respect for her being in my library profession realm.
The audio book was well narrated, but I did put it on x2 speed.
The plot was fine, pacing was steady (with some interest and some boring parts, imo)
The author notes were interesting and stated intentions to write her as well as they could. Also it was during the 2020 pandemic so they talk a little about that experience and how similar events BLM protests sort of echoed similar themes in the book.

Good book, an extra star for me because the mad librarian respect. AND YES! I did get this book at my library! ;)
