"84, Charing Cross Road," by Helene Hanff

Did I love it: 4/5
Sex: 1/5
Language: 1.5/5
Violence: 1/5

Plot:
This is a record of the letters that passed back and forth between a freelance writer, the author Helene Hanff, and and a book seller in England. The letters span about 20 years, and give you a great insight into her bigger-than-life personality, and her great love of English literature.


Did I love it:
I would describe this as a "charming" book. It's very much like "The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society," which book I absolutely adored. It's witty, and easy to read. Weighing in at about 100 pages (most of them only half pages, at that), I read half of it over lunch, and the other half over dinner.

Sex: none

Language: She uses the "H" word a few times, but I think that's it.

Violence: none
