Summary and Discussion of Madeline Martin's The Last Bookshop in London

The Ophania Book Club Companion series exists to help provide a foothold into literary criticism and analysis for those who don’t have a background in the area. If you enjoy reading, and are interested in thinking about and talking about the books you read, this series is for you.

Each volume in the series includes a summary of the setting, characters and plot of a work of fiction, as well as a review, a discussion of major themes and elements of the story (in the form of the Things to Think About section), and a set of discussion questions to help you focus your thoughts on the book or to help launch a discussion about the book between friends or a book club.

This volume is a summary and discussion of Madeline Martin’s The Last Bookshop in London, the first historical fiction novel from an established and popular writer of historical romance.
