CHECK OUT tells the story of a shy librarian and an injured marine. Betsy is happy working at the library all her life. That is all shaken up when Nash brings his books back to the library, and her sister turns up for a stay, bringing baggage with her.

This had the potential for a great story. Instead, I read a good one. I don't know if it's the author's writing style or just how I was reading it, but I never once was drugged within the story, as I love. It was always very clear that I was reading a story. The characters were likeable but I couldn't really feel the chemistry between them. The dialogues were somewhat stilted at times which didn't help.

On the whole, this was a quick read that holds the potential for so much more. Still, it was enjoyable, and a good coffee break book.

* A copy of this book was provided to me with no requirements for a review. I voluntarily read this book, and my comments here are my honest opinion. *

I use this app to borrow audiobooks from the Austin Public Library. Ebooks are also available, but I can't get them transferred to my e-ink nook, so I tend to not borrow them. The only thing that bothers me, is that there are a limited about of audiobook copies that they can let at once. So, it takes forever for the popular books to be available. It also works really well with the bluetooth in my car, which is a relief because Audible is horrible with bluetooth.
