What’s not to love about a book athat tells the story of a young woman who discovers the joy in books!
Timid, shy Grace comes to London after her nasty uncle throws her out of the family home. She’s been slaving in his shop for years, but he wouldn’t even give her a reference, just sent her away as WWII was starting.
The only job she can find is working as a shop assistant for a curmudgeonly bookshop owner.
Grace transforms the bookshop, its owner, and herself while London is being blitzed.
A little preachy and moralistic at times, but on the whole an entertaining read.
