Acerca de este título

Emily Austin, the bestselling “queen of darkly quirky, endearingly flawed heroines” (Sarah Haywood, author of The Cactus), returns with a luminous new novel following a librarian who comes back to work after a mental breakdown only to confront book-banning crusaders in an empowering story of grief, love, and the power of libraries.

Darcy’s life turned out better than she could have ever imagined. She is a librarian at the local branch, while her wife Joy runs a book binding service. Between the two of them, there is no more room on their shelves with their ample book collections, various knickknacks and bobbles, and dried bouquets. Rounding out their ideal life is two cats and a sun-soaked house by the lake.

But when Darcy receives the news that her ex-boyfriend, Ben, has passed away, she spirals into a pit of guilt and regret, resulting in a mental breakdown and medical leave from the library. When she returns to work, she is met by unrest in her community and protests surrounding intellectual freedom, resulting in a call for book bans and a second look at the branch’s upcoming DEI programs.

Through the support of her community, colleagues, and the personal growth that results from examining her previous relationships, Darcy comes into her own agency and the truest version of herself. Is This a Cry for Help? not only offers a moving portrait of queer life after coming of age but also powerfully explores questions about sexuality, community, and the importance of libraries.

Reseñas de la crítica

"

This audiobook follows a young woman whose tightly controlled life begins to strain under the weight of a recent loss and the growing pressure of dealing with a conservative activist who disrupts the fragile calm of her library job. The story blends humor with emotional honesty, capturing the exhausting push-pull of wanting connection while feeling overwhelmed by her own thoughts and her fierce sense of social justice. Natalie Naudus delivers a standout performance, bringing the protagonist's guarded vulnerability into sharp focus. Her subtle tonal shifts make every interaction feel immediate, and her steady pacing deepens both the humor and the anguish. Naudus' nuanced delivery brings every emotional shift into sharp, resonant focus."
