I found this a very enjoyable read. I listened to it on audiobook and thought the narrator did a great job. I love how the atmosphere is set, and it really brought you to London and in the bookshop! This book pulled at my emotions and I really enjoyed the characters. I also loved the book recommendations that the characters gave each other in the story! I added a few to my shelves! It does have some sad moments and there is talk of death and grief here. However, I really would recommend this to everyone, especially if you are a History Fiction and Book Lover!  For those who are curious about language: I did count about 5x that the characters used God's Name in placement of "gosh" but in my opinion it wasn't distracting.
