Bloomsbury Girls

Natalie Jenner is the author of the historical fiction novel called Bloomsbury Girls. Set is London in 1950 Bloomsbury is a rare and new book store run mostly by men. Three women work at the shop. Vivian is single since her fiancĂ© was killed in the war. Grace is married and has two sons. She is finding it hard to cope with her husband who suffers from PTSD from his war experiences and is becoming ever more violent. Evie is fresh out of college and very smart. The women have ideas to make this bookstore more successful. I enjoyed reading this novel with the strong female figures working together to make things happen.
