The synopsis to this promised so much, but I'm afraid I found it a bit too predictable. The story flowed quite well, all of the characters were fairly unsympathetic but the MCs were fairly well defined. It can be difficult to walk the line between giving just enough away & giving too much away, here the twists are predict, 3⭐

Thanks to NetGalley & publisher, Head of Zeus, for the opportunity to read an ARC. #NetGalley #HeadofZeus

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
