The Librarian Spy by Madeline Martin - Audio Version

 The Librarian Spy

by Madeline Martin
Audio Version

The Librarian Spy is an interesting story
chock full of information and facts about 
the time surrounding WWII. 
The people in the background. The ones we
know very little about. People that put their 
lives on the line every day. Gave up love, 
a future, security and much more. 
But they willingly learned and worked and
starved and did without so much. 
They saved so many. Gave of themselves 
with the hope that it would work out. 

Madeline Martin has written a story after
doing so much research. In order to give the
reader so much detail. Madeline also found a
wonderful narrator. Saskia Maarleveld. 
Saskia has done narration on another book 
from Madeline Martin. The Last Bookshop
in London. Another story that will hit you 
in all the feels. 
One of the main characters begins the story
while working happily at the library of congress.
She left her dream job to help others in a much
bigger way as a spy.

Last Bookshop in London by Madeline Martin

 The Last Bookshop in London

by Madeline Martin


Audible Version

To begin, I want to give a big round of applause to 

Saskia Maarleveld for her wonderful narration. 

This is a marvelous story. But the beautiful narration

by Ms Maarleveld only puts you deeper in the events

and the times. 

Grace has always wanted to live in London. The 

excitement and sophistication. When the time finally 

arrives for her dream to come true, it is also time 

for a world changing war to take place. Grace has never

thought of herself as brave or strong. But as the 


world changes, so does she. She finds the courage and

muscle to help. To make life better for everyone around 

her. She isn't the only one. Grace helps others to find

the strength inside them they never knew they had.


 The bravery Grace finds in herself spreads out to all. 

Madeline Martin has written such a dramatic story that

can inspire everyone. The Last Bookshop in London, as

you would imagine, has a lot about people reading in it. 

But the bookshop isn't just about books or reading. 

It is about community and love and hope.

Events like the ones in this story probably happen in 

real life during wars. Real heroes are born in these times. 

I loved listening to this book. I hope you will too. 

I bought my copy from Audible.com

plan but if it is successful, it will bring peace.
Both Delilah and Kaid have everything at stake.

Highland Ruse is a story of fighting to give
romance a chance to come to life.
Madeline Martin has written characters that
are not afraid to know what they want and
do what they must to succeed.
