The Library of Stars

The Library must have a librarian…

Archimedes is no ordinary library. Its ceilings shimmer with stars, its books heal hearts, and it appears only where it is needed before vanishing without a trace. Whenever it moves on, the world forgets it ever existed–along with the family bound to it.

In London, after her parents are found dead under mysterious circumstances, Seraphine Finch inherits Archimedes and the burden of becoming its last custodian. Now the fate of the library rests with her alone.

But when she meets Sebastian Ellerbrook, a charming patron haunted by a dark past of his own, Seraphine begins to imagine a life beyond the library, even though their ending has already been written: the moment Archimedes moves on, he'll forget she ever existed.

As others seeking Archimedes draw closer, Seraphine must choose between protecting the greatest wonder the world will never remember... or risking everything for a love destined to forget her.

About Jordan Rose

Jordan Rose studied English Literature and Language at the University of Sussex and is usually found hiding in a little cottage in the English countryside with her Westie, Oscar.

She has been obsessed with writing stories ever since she learned to wield a pen and spent much of her childhood escaping into fantasy worlds, fuelled by a healthy diet of Disney movies which caused her to become deeply unimpressed by reality. When she’s not writing she enjoys vintage fashion, video games with unforgettable narratives and resisting the urge to add more Sylvanian Families to her collection.
