October’s book is The Personal Librarian by Marie Benedict and Victoria Christopher Murray.
Belle da Costa Greene was the personal librarian of J.P. Morgan, and one of the most powerful people in the world of art and book collecting. She also had a secret: her African-American heritage. Navigating New York high society while passing as white, Belle built a world-class collection and a lasting legacy. Based on a true story.
