“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.”
Inspired by the true World War II history of the few bookshops to survive the Blitz, The Last Bookshop in London is a timeless story of wartime loss, love, and the enduring power of literature.
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 blackout curtains that she finds on her arrival were not what she expected. 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.
Read Alikes for The Last Bookshop in London: The Air Raid Book Club by Annie Lyons; The Book of Lost Names by Kristin Harmel; 84, Charing Cross Road by Helene Hanff; The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Shaffer and Annie Barrows; The Rose Code by Kate Quinn
