A ghost in a library. A story waiting to be told. The Missing Pages is a rich, lyrical novel that reminds us that books are as eternal as the soul. 1912: Harry Widener, a promising and passionate book collector, boards the Titanic holding tight to a priceless volume he's just purchased in London. After the ship strikes an iceberg, Harry's last known words are that he must return to his cabin to retrieve his latest treasure. Neither the young man nor the book is ever seen again. To honor her son's memory, Harry's mother builds the Harry Widener Memorial Library at Harvard to house his extensive book collection and ensure his legacy. Decades later, Violet Hutchins, a Harvard sophomore recovering from her own great loss, is working as a page at the Widener Library. When mysterious things begin happening at the library, Violet wonders if Harry Widener's ghost is trying to communicate with her, seeking her help to uncover a long-buried secret that the ardent young Harry took with him to the grave. For fans of The Midnight Library and The Book Thief, bestselling author Alyson Richman has written a love story, a ghost story, and an elegy to the healing power of books.

I read this for historical fiction book club & it was so good! This is the 1st book I‘ve read by this author & I would definitely read more of her books. It‘s a dual timeline between Violet at Harvard in 1992 & Harry‘s experiences with the book buying world in 1912. Harry is a victim of the Titanic (not a spoiler) & he may be trying to communicate with Violet. This was such a sweet & lovely story! I cared about both of the protagonists. 5 stars!

This is a hauntingly beautiful novel that explores how history leaves fingerprints on the present. Richman‘s writing is lyrical and emotionally textured, weaving archival mystery with intimate human connection.

This is a story for anyone who‘s ever held an old book and wondered whose hands turned the pages before theirs. A love letter to libraries, to truth, and to the quiet romance of legacy.
