The Last Bookshop in London
by Madeline Martin
Stayed up very late to finish this and I have no regrets. This book was simply beautiful, and made me tear up multiple times. WWII London, strong female protagonist, books — what’s not to love? It’s like I conjured this book into existence with all of my favorite things.
This book was just lovely and I sped through it. Grace’s relationship with Mr. Evans will forever leave a lump in my throat. Every chapter was so vivid. I felt like I was there in the bombings, I was there in the tube station listening to Grace read aloud during the air raids, I was there in the bookshop looking at all of the colorful and creative book displays. The overarching themes of resilience and the power of community are definitely relevant in COVID times. Just a lovely, stunning, brilliant book that I enjoyed very much.
