Her latest critically acclaimed novel, The Book Woman of Troublesome Creek, was named a 2020 PBS Readers’ Choice book, a 2019 LibraryReads Best Book, an Indie Next Pick, a SIBA Pick, a Forbes Best Historical Novel, a Book-a-Million Expert Pick, an Oprah’s Buzziest Books pick and a Women’s National Book Association Great Group Reads selection. It was inspired by the real-life, remarkable “blue people” of Kentucky, and the fierce, brave packhorse librarians who used the power of literacy to overcome bigotry and fear during the Great Depression. The novel is taught widely in high schools and college classrooms. Her fifth novel, The Book Woman’s Daughter, is both a stand-alone and a sequel to The Book Woman of Troublesome Creek. Born in Kentucky, Kim Michele Richardson lives there with her family.view less
