“Books are what have brought us together. A love of the stories within, the adventures they take us on, their glorious distraction in a time of strife." - " The Last Bookshop in London" by Madeline Martin


This book is a moving piece of historical fiction set on the eve of World War II. It follows Grace Bennett, a young woman who leaves the countryside for London and ends up working in a dusty old bookshop just as war breaks out. Amid air raids, bombings, and the Blitz, Grace discovers the power of storytelling and literature to unite her community and uplift spirits in even the darkest of time.
