Pam’s Pick this week is:
“The Underground Library” by Jennifer Ryan, this is the story of three very different women: Sofie, a Jewish refugee from Germany; Juliet, an empathetic and motivated new deputy librarian; and Katie, a young woman about to start university. Each woman faces a unique hardship, but their stories converge at the Bethnal Green Library, where they find solace in books. As the Blitz forces their community to take shelter in the underground station, the written word brings people together, and Juliet begins lending books from the station. But a string of tragedies threatens to break the fragile hope that the underground library has forged. This is not only a testament to the strength of women during WWII; it is also a love letter to libraries and the boundless knowledge and pleasure they provide.
