Really enjoyed this one and discovered a new author I like. Based around a real bookshop that was founded by Ethel Gutman in 1921 London, it was established with the idea of providing a place for the working-class to learn to read, buy books on an installment plan, stage classical plays, learn other languages, etc.

This is the fictional story of Kate Goss, a young woman who struggled against poverty, hunger and a cruel family and its secrets.⬇️

robinb While depressing at times, it is ultimately a story of overcoming obstacles and becoming one‘s own person rather than a reflection of one‘s family or circumstances. Good character development and plot. My only con? Wish it hadn‘t wrapped up so quickly...I felt the ending needed an epilogue. 4/5⭐️ #NetGalley #HeadofZeus Out 2/6 4y
