The Keeper of Stories

Janice is a collector of stories. She can’t recall what started her collection, but somehow, as she cleaned their houses, her clients began telling her their stories. When Janice starts cleaning for shrewd, elderly Mrs. B, she finally meets someone who wants to hear her story. But Janice is clear: she is the keeper of stories, she doesn’t have a story to tell. At least, not one she can share. A charming, uplifting debut novel, full of humor and depth. Available January 24, 2023.

An intriguing concept with great potential, but I found the inclusion of unnecessary graphic and sexual content to be distracting and, at times, detracting from the heart of the narrative. it made it somehow vulgar and shocking for no reason really. While the story's themes of memory and storytelling were compelling, the more explicit elements seemed out of place and overshadowed the book’s deeper emotional layers. It felt like a missed opportunity to let the core story shine without the added weight of such content, which is a shame, because the voice and talent of the author are very apparent to me.
