Resumen del Editor

Inspired by true events, The Wartime Book Club is an unforgettable story of everyday bravery and resistance, full of romance, drama, and camaraderie and a tribute to the joy of reading and the power of books in our darkest hour.

The Isle of Jersey was once a warm and neighborly community, but in 1943, German soldiers patrol the cobbled streets, imposing a harsh rule.

Nazis have ordered Grace La Mottée, the island's only librarian, to destroy books that threaten the new regime. Instead, she hides the stories away in secret. Along with her headstrong best friend, she wants to fight back. So she forms the Wartime Book Club: a lifeline, offering fearful islanders the joy and escapism of reading.

But as the occupation drags on, the women's quiet acts of bravery become more perilous–and more important–than ever before. And when tensions turn to violence, they are forced to face the true, terrible cost of resistance...

Based on astonishing real events, The Wartime Book Club is a love letter to the power of books in the darkest of times–as well as a moving work that brings to life the remarkable, untold story of an island at war.

Well researched

Imogen Church’s over-the-top, slow narration takes away from the story. I sped her up to 1.3 and was able to get through. I love the thorough research and love for England that this author puts into her books.

Great story

This was a very informative and captivating story about a part of the war that I was really not familiar with. Listen to the postscripts at the end of the story because you will learn a lot about what is true in the story (a lot). The narrator was just a little “over done” as far as intonation and emphasis, but I got used to it.
