I listened to the audiobook and was pulled deep into the disbelief and shock of London during the Blitz. A young woman and her friend arrive from the country to London hoping to work in a shop only to find herself working in a book shop for a man that clearly doesn't want her help. She begins reading from the recommendations of shop patrons and soon she is steering the shop into success as well as adjusting to how she can help in the war effort and the grief that comes with war. Part romance, part historical this is a story with a bit for everyone and it is wonderful in audio. The fear, the resilience and the spirit of London is inspiring not to mention seeing the birth of marketing techniques that are still used today. 4 stars
