What You Wish For by Katherine Center

What You Wish For | Katherine Center | 2020
This romantic comedy is about an elementary librarian who works in a private school in Galveston, Texas. She has to deal with a new principal who is trying to turn the place into a prison with all his safety measures. Samantha used to know him in her past teaching job where he was a joyful, extroverted and greatly loved teacher. She had a huge crush on him then. Now, as there paths cross again, Samantha wonders what happened to Duncan Carpenter to make him change so much.
Samantha deals with her own anxiety and also suffers from epilepsy. She has learned to live a life a joy despite her difficulties. She wonders if she can help Duncan do the same. She gets assistance from colleagues at school and lots of funny hijinks occur!
This book has a bit more comedy than the last two I read....yet there are serious issues included so it is not all fluffy! I liked reading about a school and especially about a librarian which rang true to the job. Galveston sounds like a dreamy island community and made it an interesting setting. Another good Katherine Center book.
