L&R Customers’ Choice: Julie
We have asked some of our regular customers to curate a display of their favourite books for the shop. We’ll be updating the display, and the list on the website weekly. If you would like to buy or reserve any of these books please call the shop on 020 7229 1010, or email bookshop@lutyensrubinstein.co.uk
Our next display is chosen by Julie, who runs the brilliant website Bookstoker – a fantastic place to find recommendations and reviews.
She says: “Sometimes you read a book that you can’t get out of your head. Years will go by and you still keep suggesting that book to people. These are some of the books that have stayed with me and I keep recommending. Hope you enjoy them as much as I have!”:
