A review by savvylit
84, Charing Cross Road by Helene Hanff

hopeful inspiring lighthearted fast-paced

3.0

This book is a very wholesome chronicle of a pen pal friendship that lasted 20 years. The way that Helene comes to deeply care for the booksellers, particularly Frank Doel & family, and vice versa is very sweet to experience secondhand.

This short epistolary memoir was the perfect pleasant read during what has turned out to be a sad and chaotic month for me personally.
