Book Review: The Messy Lives of Book People

Published by

  • The Messy Lives of Book People, Phaedra Patrick. This might be my favorite read of the year so far. Daughter of an English professor and house cleaner Liv Green works for bestselling author Essie Starling, who dies unexpectedly after surgery. Essie’s last decree is for Liv to finish the author’s 20th manuscript. Liv feels writing the proper send off for Essie’s main character, Georgia Rory, means finding out who would have been the love of Essie’s life— and the answer shocks poor Liv to her core. The book examines the creative world, personal identity, and marital relationships.
