The Library of Lost and Found by Phaedra Patrick

'You live on your own, so you have more time,' Clive had told her, when he'd asked her to take charge of the event preparations. 'You don't have personal commitments.'

A self-effacing volunteer librarian who gave up on a relationship to take care of her parents till they died finds purpose in her life by doing others favours. Naturally, she is taken by granted by almost everyone she encounters until, spurred on by being connected with a self-published book full of stories she herself wrote as a child, she begins to make sense of her past and take control of her present.
