The astral library [sound recording] : a novel / Kate Quinn.

Quinn, Kate, (author,, narrator.). Maarleveld, Saskia, (narrator.).

Summary:

"Alexandria 'Alix' Watson has learned one lesson from her barren childhood in the foster-care system: books will never let you down, unlike people. Working three dead-end jobs to make ends meet and knowing college is a pipe dream, Alix takes nightly refuge in the high-vaulted reading room at the Boston Public Library, escaping into her favorite fantasy novels and dreaming of far-off lands. Until the day she stumbles through a hidden door and meets the Librarian: the ageless, acerbic guardian of a hidden library where the desperate and the lost escape to new lives inside their favorite books." -- Provided by publisher.
