A sentient bookshop spans time and space in 1940s New York, welcoming all kinds of travelers into the cozy and comforting atmosphere unique to bookstores. By using WWII as a backdrop of tension, Thompson further layers on the concept of Light and Dark, and how tempting it can be to use the Dark for what is believed to be good purposes. I was pleasantly surprised with this book! I hope the author writes more.
