- This is the story of how Shakespeare and Company, the most famous English language bookstore in Paris, was founded and the women behind it. A light read that's good for summer.

I found the book to be slow and struggled through all of it. But when I googled the life of Sylvia Beach and Adrienne Minnie’s - I enjoyed reading about them.

The Paris Bookseller by Kerri Maher
This was a beautiful story! Just appreciating all of the research and dedication that the author put into this book this alone makes this book worth reading! Kerri Maher did exactly what evey good historical fiction book should transport us back in time and bring an old story back to life! The time and detail she put into building her characters was done so well I felt like I knew them! This book is one that all book lovers will cherish! Truly an amazing experience reading this book! I hope to read more by this author in the near future! Happy reading everyone!

Overall enjoyed this book, but I had a hard time with how the narrator did male voices.
