Melissa D.5 Stars Out Of 5Brilliant dual time period historical romance!April 16, 2024Melissa D.Quality: 5Value: 5Meets Expectations: 5You*ve Got Mail meets Downton Abbey in this heart-achingly lovely dual time period historical romance from Kristy Cambron. Taking place mainly in 1914 and 1940, this book took me on a page turning journey as childhood friends Amos & Charlie (Lady Charlotte) share their love of books and more through war, heartbreak, rivalry, and second chance love.
I absolutely loved Amos, the grumpy, wounded farmer*s son with a heart of gold, and Charlotte, the resilient, kind hearted, cello playing heiress. Torn apart by class differences and WWI, they*re now rival bookshop owning enemies. I loved finding out what happened in 1914 and WWI to make their relationship what is was in 1940.
I also loved Eden and Jacob! Eden is Charlotte*s daughter who*s doing everything she can to keep their estate running amidst the Coventry Blitz. Jacob*s an American lawyer who*s come to present her with papers naming her in a contested will. They start off as enemies, but as they work together to help the Coventry community, they begin to grow closer.
Both time periods were so compelling and I couldn*t wait to unravel the mystery in each one. Each storyline comes together for a stunning, touching, heroic ending that left me in tears. War brings out the best and worst in people and I loved seeing the best for once. I enjoyed learning about the Forgotten Blitz and the Land Girls through this amazing story.
Full of romance, intrigue, heroism, and love of music & the written word, The British Booksellers is a new favorite book by Kristy Cambron. Highly recommend to historical romance fans! Definitely add this love letter to books & second chances to your must read list! I received an advanced complimentary copy from the publisher. All opinions are my own and voluntarily provided. -
Chris5 Stars Out Of 5Amazing BookJune 24, 2025ChrisQuality: 5Value: 5Meets Expectations: 5While I am not huge into reading the romance category this book excels in so many ways. I highly recommend it for men or women looking for a War Time romance. The amount of research that went into telling real events that occurred during World War 1 and World War 2 in the same novel was amazing all while entwining fictional story telling as well. The internal battles of faith and love being tested across years of time with Charlotte and her daughter Eden learning some of those same lessons along the way in the current time of the 1940's so very well written and classy.

Danielle Hull5 Stars Out Of 5Great dual timeline historical fiction!April 23, 2024Danielle HullQuality: 5Value: 5Meets Expectations: 5I haven't read a Kristy Cambron novel in a few years, but I know when you read historical fiction by her, you're sure to get an amazing story, and The British Booksellers did not disappoint! A dual timeline story set in WWI and WWII, I quickly became invested in the characters, and I grew to love them. The audiobook narrator did a great job. For audios, I write down the dates and characters of the two timelines so I can easily follow the story.
I highly recommend you check out Kristy's blog for the historical background of this novel!
I received this audiobook from NetGalley in exchange for my honest review. #netgalley #TheBritishBooksellers
