Product Information

INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER "An irresistible tale which showcases the transformative power of literacy, reminding us of the hope and sanctuary our neighborhood bookstores offer during the perilous trials of war and unrest." --KIM MICHELE RICHARDSON, author of The Book Woman of Troublesome Creek August 1939: London prepares for war as Hitler's forces sweep across Europe. Grace Bennett has always dreamed of moving to the city, but the bunkers and drawn curtains that she finds on her arrival are not what she expected. And she certainly never imagined she'd wind up working at Primrose Hill, a dusty old bookshop nestled in the heart of London. Through blackouts and air raids as the Blitz intensifies, Grace discovers the power of storytelling to unite her community in ways she never dreamed--a force that triumphs over even the darkest nights of the war. "A gorgeously written story of love, friendship, and survival set against the backdrop of WWII-era London." --JILLIAN CANTOR, author of In Another Time and Half Life "A love letter to the power of books to unite us, to hold the world together when it's falling apart around our ears. This fresh take on what London endured during WWII should catapult Madeline Martin to the top tier of historical fiction novelists." --KAREN ROBARDS, author of The Black Swan of Paris Don't miss Madeline Martin's newest historical novel, The Keeper of Hidden Books! Also by Madeline Martin: The Librarian Spy The Keeper of Hidden Books

  • A great WW2 read about books

    I enjoyed this book immensely. It’s about a young woman who hadn’t spent any time reading. She moved to London and got a job in a lovely old bookstore. She began reading and not just to herself. She read to groups of her neighbors in shelters during the blitz. All the characters are interesting and the story is original and interesting. I will read the book again in a year or so if I live that long. It will always remain on my top ten list. I know if you read it you will love it!!!

  • “Last Bookshop” Is A Page-Turner

    The book had me captivated from the first page. I read 10 chapters in a row while my eyes were burning. It is very compelling. The main character is perfect. Excellent, excellent book.

  • Determined to not be defeated.

    This was an uplifting story set in London during World WR I. It spoke to the horrors of war and the determination of the people of London that everyone would do their part to support the English soldiers and not let Hitler win. I highly recommend it.
