| Summary, Etc. |
"In Ordinary Time, Annie Jones reflects on her unexpected life in a small town, running an independent bookstore, instead of the grand adventures she once envisioned. Over the years, she stayed in her marriage, her small-town life, and loyal to her faith, despite the world around her shifting toward digital and fast-paced living. As time passed, Annie had an epiphany: staying put, living quietly, and embracing the ordinary can be a radical and fulfilling act. Challenging the idea that only loud, adventurous lives matter, she finds joy and meaning in the small, everyday moments. Ordinary Time celebrates the power of staying where we are, appreciating the beauty and growth that can come from embracing a simple, rooted life"-- Provided by publisher.
