A Better Tomorrow for the East End Library Girls

Cordelia, Mavis and Jane were known as the Library Girls.  But they were so much more than that.  Each played such an important role in the community that they lived. 

You will love each one of them.  Cordelia or Lady Cordelia worked hard to make the library a place for all. Mavis fights for better housing for her friends and neighbors. Jane attempts to get along with her difficult mother in law. 

How hard it must have been to live in those times. Loved ones off fighting in different countries. Sirens going off and having to rush off to the air raid shelters not knowing if your house will still be standing when you come out. Foods rationed and shortages everywhere. They did the best they could to survive. 

Thank goodness the Library Girls had each other, the people in their community and the library. 

I received this book from Boldwood Books to review.

A Better Tomorrow For The East End Library Girls

As the war nears its end, the library girls rally for their community...

With London still in the grip of war, Cordelia, Mavis, and Jane find themselves facing a new challenge. Determined to make a difference, the librarians band together to organise rent strikes, standing up against dirty landlords and unfair practices.

Meanwhile, with the arrival of American GIs in the East End, Cordelia is presented with a temptation too irresistible to bear. Should she follow her head or her heart – stay faithful to her beloved Robert fighting abroad, or enjoy the brief respite from the constant air raids and destruction?

As the women fight for what’s right, the promise of a better tomorrow begins to take shape. But will their efforts be enough to secure a better life for their community?

A stirring tale of courage and camaraderie, perfect for fans of Lizzie Lane, Elaine Roberts, and Lesley Eames.
