chanelchapters 's review for:

84, Charing Cross Road by Helene Hanff, Marina Premoli
2.0

Whilst I love the idea of it all, the letters themselves fell flat for me.
Helen's character certainly shines through but I felt the bunch at the bookstore were rather one-dimensional and almost cold in response to Helen's letters and her cheek. There wasn't any real substance and to me, no real point.
