The British Booksellers is a heartwarming second-chance romance and a page-turning story of surviving the Coventry Blitz during WWII.

Welcome to #ThrowBackThursday where I highlight an older review or post a current review of a backlist title. This week I’m featuring page-turning historical fiction, The British Booksellers by Kristy Cambron.

I’m linking up with Davida @ The Chocolate Lady’s Book Review Blog for #ThrowbackThursday.

My Summary:

A secret childhood friendship between a tenant farmer’s son and an earl’s daughter blossoms into teenage infatuation until the Great War intervenes. Amos goes to war and Charlotte enters into a loveless marriage. Fast forward twenty-five years and Amos is the reclusive owner of a bookstore and Charlotte, a war widow, owns a competitive bookshop across the street. A solicitor arrives in town and threatens the existence of Charlotte’s bookstore. Amos tries to help from a distance, but he and Charlotte no longer have a close relationship. When WWII arrives on their doorsteps via the Coventry Blitz, the community including Amos and Charlotte must work together and put differences aside to help Coventry survive.

Compelling and well-told historical fiction with relatable characters and a multilayered plot
