This book made me think of you / by Page, Libby,author.;
"A woman receives an unexpected gift from the man she loved and lost -- a year of books, one for every month -- launching a reading-inspired journey to live, dream, and love again in this glimmering and heart-stopping novel. Twelve books. Twelve months. One chance to heal her heart ... When Tilly Nightingale receives a call telling her there's a birthday gift from her husband waiting for her at her local bookshop, it couldn't come as more of a shock. Partly because she can't remember the last time she read a book for pleasure. But mainly because Joe died five months ago ... When she goes to pick up the present, Alfie, the kind (and adorably bookish) bookshop owner, explains the gift -- twelve carefully chosen books from Joe, one for each month, to help her turn the page on her first year without him. Her monthly trips to the bookstore -- and heartfelt conversations with Alfie -- give Tilly the comfort she craves and the courage to set out on a series of reading-inspired adventures that take her around the world. But as she begins to vlog her journey, her story becomes more than her own. With help from Alfie, her budding new following and her friends and family, can Tilly's year of books show her how to love again?"--

With layoffs looming, Bernice makes the gamble of her career-she promises her editor she can catch Laurent's killer before the week is out.
